Installing the CPU Read the following guidelines before you begin to install the CPU: • Make sure that the motherboard supports the CPU. (Go to GIGABYTE's website for the latest CPU support list.) • Always turn off the computer and unplug the power cord from the power outlet before installing the CPU to prevent hardware damage.
The two DDR4 memory sockets are divided into two channels and each channel has one memory socket as following: Channel A: DDR4_1 Channel B: DDR4_2 Due to CPU limitations, read the following guidelines before installing the memory in Dual Channel mode. Dual Channel mode cannot be enabled if only one memory module is installed.

Chapter 2 BIOS Setup BIOS (Basic Input and Output System) records hardware parameters of the system in the CMOS on the motherboard. Its major functions include conducting the Power-On Self-Test (POST) during system startup, saving system parameters and loading operating system, etc. BIOS includes a BIOS Setup program that allows the user to modify basic system configuration settings or to activate certain system features.
The Main Menu System Time Setup Menus Configuration Items Hardware Information Option Description Current Settings Quick Access Bar allows you to quickly move to the General Help, Easy Mode, Smart Fan 6, or Q-Flash screen. Advanced Mode Function Keys <f><g> Move the selection bar to select a setup menu <h><i>...
Smart Fan 6 Use the <F6> function key to quickly switch to this screen. This screen allows you to configure fan speed related settings for each fan header or monitor your system/CPU temperature. & TUNE ALL Allows you to apply the current settings to all fan headers. & Temperature Displays the current temperature of the selected target area. & Fan Speed Displays current fan speeds.
& FAN Stop Enables or disables the fan stop function. You can set the temperature limit using the temperature curve. The fan stops operation when the temperature is lower than the limit. (Default: Disabled) & FAN Mode Allows you to set the operating mode for the fan. Adjusts the fan speed linearly based on the temperature.
Tweaker Whether the system will work stably with the overclock/overvoltage settings you made is dependent on your overall system configurations. Incorrectly doing overclock/overvoltage may result in damage to CPU, chipset, or memory and reduce the useful life of these components. This page is for advanced users only and we recommend you not to alter the default settings to prevent system instability or other unexpected results.
