1. Ensure the selected motherboard is appropriate for the chosen processor model and frequency.

2. Verify that your case follows the system case (chassis) airflow guidelines on the AMD

website.

3. Calculate the power requirements for the intended configuration prior to selecting and

installing a power supply.

Note: Ensure that the power supply wattage selected meets the intended configuration

requirement and the motherboard and chassis are electrically and mechanically

compatible.

4. Ensure that you are properly grounded at all times during the system construction to protect

the delicate electronic components from static electricity damage.

5. Install the selected hard drives, floppy disk drives, DVD or CD-ROM player, and other

devices into the chassis.

Note: Check the hard drive installation guide. For full performance, you must also install the

appropriate data cable (see drive installation instructions).

6. Remove the motherboard from its protective packaging and place it on a firm (but not hard)

surface—ideally the surface will be a grounded anti-static pad.
