3. Installing CPU & Housing Fan
Plug in the CPU fan cable to the 3-pin CPUFAN1 connector. If you have chassis fan, you
can also plug it on SYSFAN2 or SYSFAN3 connector.
SYSFAN3 Connector
4. Connecting IDE & Floppy Connectors
Connect 34-pin floppy cable and 40-pin IDE cable to floppy connector FDC connector. Be
careful of the pin1 orientation. Wrong orientation may cause system damage.

5. Setting CPU Voltage & Frequency
Full-range Adjustable CPU Core Voltage
This motherboard supports CPU VID function. The CPU core voltage will be automatically
detected and the range is from 1.1V to 1.85V. It is not necessary to set CPU Core Voltage.
Setting CPU Frequency
This motherboard is CPU jumper-less design, you can set CPU frequency through the
BIOS setup, and no jumpers or switches are needed.
BIOS Setup > Frequency / Voltage Control > CPU Speed Setup
Core Frequency = CPU FSB Clock * CPU Ratio

Note:
With CPU speed changing rapidly, there might be fastest CPU on the
market by the time you received this installation guide. This table is kindly for
your references only.
Warning: nForce2-ST/G/GT chipsets support 166MHz FSB (with performance reaches
maximum 333MHz EV6 system bus) and 66MHz AGP clock, higher clock setting may cause
serious system damage.
Tip: If your system hangs or fails to boot because of overclocking, simply use
<Home> key to restore the default setting or you can wait the AOpen "Watch Dog
Timer" reset the system in five seconds and system will auto-detect hardware again.
