Super X13SAV-LVDS User's Manual Removing the Heatsink Warning: We do not recommend that the CPU or heatsink be removed. However, if you do need to remove the heatsink, follow the instruction below to uninstall it to avoid damaging the CPU or other components.
Chapter 2: Installation 2.3 Motherboard Installation All motherboards have standard mounting holes to fit different types of chassis. Make sure that the locations of all the mounting holes for both the motherboard and the chassis match. Although a chassis may have both plastic and metal mounting fasteners, metal ones are highly recommended because they ground the motherboard to the chassis.
Super X13SAV-LVDS User's Manual Installing the Motherboard 1. Install the I/O shield into the back of the chassis, if applicable. 2. Locate the mounting holes on the motherboard. See the previous page for the location. 3. Locate the matching mounting holes on the chassis. Align the mounting holes on the motherboard against the mounting holes on the chassis.
Memory Support The X13SAV-LVDS supports up to 64GB of DDR4 Non-ECC SODIMM memory with speeds of up to 3200 MT/s in two memory slots. Refer to the table below for the recommended DIMM population order and additional memory information.
Super X13SAV-LVDS User's Manual General Guidelines for Optimizing Memory Performance • DIMM slots must be populated in the following order: DIMMA1, DIMMB1. • It's recommended to use DDR4 memory of the same type, size, and speed. • Mixed DIMM speeds can be installed. However, all DIMMs will run at the speed of the slowest DIMM.
Chapter 2: Installation DIMM Installation 1. Install the desired number of SODIMMs into the memory slots, starting with DIMMA1 and then DIMMB1. 2. Align the key on the bottom of the SODIMM module against the receptive point on the memory slot.
