  • Page 18: Central Processing Unit (Cpu)

    Central Processing Unit (CPU) This motherboard comes with a surface mount Intel Socket LGA1200 ® designed for 10 Gen Intel Core™, Pentium Gold and Celeron ® ® ® Processors. Unplug all power cables before installing the CPU. • Ensure that you install the correct CPU designed for the LGA1200 socket only. DO NOT install a CPU designed for LGA1150, LGA1151, LGA1155 and LGA1156 sockets on the LGA1200 socket. • Upon purchase of the motherboard, ensure that the PnP cap is on the socket and the socket contacts are not bent. Contact your retailer immediately if the PnP cap is missing, or if you see any damage to the PnP cap/socket contacts/motherboard components. • Keep the cap after installing the motherboard. ASUS will process Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) requests only if the motherboard comes with the cap on the LGA1200 socket. • The product warranty does not cover damage to the socket contacts resulting from incorrect CPU installation/removal, or misplacement/loss/incorrect removal of the PnP cap.

  • Page 19: System Memory

    • Always install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. For optimal compatibility, we recommend that you install memory modules of the same version or date code (D/C) from the same vendor. Check with the retailer to get the correct memory modules. • For 10 Gen Intel processors, only Core™ i9/i7 CPUs support 2933/2800/2666/2400/ ® 2133 natively, others will run at the maximum transfer rate of DDR4 2666MHz. • A DDR4 memory module is notched differently from a DDR, DDR2, or DDR3 module. DO NOT install a DDR, DDR2, or DDR3 memory module to the DDR4 slot. • The default memory operation frequency is dependent on its Serial Presence Detect (SPD), which is the standard way of accessing information from a memory module. Under the default state, some memory modules for overclocking may operate at a lower frequency than the vendor-marked value. • For system stability, use a more efficient memory cooling system to support a full memory load (4 DIMMs). • Refer to www.asus.com for the latest Memory QVL (Qualified Vendors List).
