  • Page 11: Before You Proceed

    Before you Proceed Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components or change any motherboard settings. Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any component. Use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded object or a metal object, such as the power supply case, before handling components to avoid damaging them due to static electricity...
  • Page 12: Motherboard Overview

    1.1 Motherboard Overview Before you install the motherboard, study the configuration of your chassis to ensure that the motherboard fits into it. Refer to the chassis documentation before installing the motherboard. Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the motherboard.

  • Page 14: Central Processing Unit (Cpu)

    1.3 Central Processing Unit (CPU) The motherboard comes with a surface mount designed for the Intel® socket 989 Arrandale processors. Please note the marked corner (with gold triangle) on the CPU. This mark should match a specific corner on the socket to ensure correct installation.
  • Page 15: Install The Cpu

    1.3.1 Installing the CPU 1. Locate the CPU socket on the motherboard. Before installing the CPU, make sure that the socket box is facing towards you. The processor socket comes with a screw to secure the processor, please unlock the screw first.  ...
  • Page 16: Installing The Cpu Heatsink And Fan

    1.3.2 Installing the CPU Heatsink and Fan 1. Screw down two fasteners at a  time in a diagonal sequence to  secure the heatsink and fan  assembly in place.  Connect the CPU fan cable to the connector on the motherboard labeled CPU_FAN1. Do not forget to connect the fan cables to the fan connectors. Insufficient air flow inside the system may damage the motherboard components, and hardware monitoring errors can occur if you fail to plug this connector.
  • Page 17: Uninstalling The Cpu Heatsink And Fan

    1.3.3 Uninstalling the CPU Heatsink and Fan Disconnect the CPU fan cable from the connector on the motherboard. Unscrew each fastener counterclockwise.   Loosen two fasteners at a time in a diagonal sequence to disengage the heatsink and fan assembly from the motherboard Carefully remove the heatsink and fan assembly from the motherboard.
  • Page 18: System Memory

    1.4 System Memory SO-DIMM Sockets Location The motherboard comes with two 204-pin Double Data Rate 3 (DDR3) SO-DIMM sockets. Memory Configurations You can install 1GB, 2GB and 4GB DDR3 SDRAM SO-DIMMs into the SO-DIMM sockets using the memory configurations in this section. Installing DDR3 SO-DIMM other than the recommended configurations may cause memory sizing error or system boot failure.
  • Page 19: Installing The Memory

    1.4.1 Installing a DDR3 SO-DIMM Make sure to unplug the power supply before adding or removing SO-DIMMs or other system components. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to both the motherboard and the components. Locate the SO-DIMM socket on the board. Hold two edges of the SO-DIMM module carefully, and keep away of touching its connectors.
  • Page 20: Unistalling The Memory

    1.4.2 Removing a DDR3 SO-DIMM 1. Press the two ejector tabs on the slot outward simultaneously, and then pull out the SO-DIMM module. Support the SO-DIMM lightly with your fingers when pressing the ejector tabs. The SO-DIMM might get damaged when it flips out with extra force.
  • Page 21: Expansion Slot

    1.5 Expansion slots In the future, you may need to install expansion cards. The following sub‑sections describe the slots and the expansion cards that they support. Make sure to unplug the power cord before adding or removing expansion cards. Failure to do so may cause you physical injury and damage motherboard components.
