  • Page 24: Mounting The Motherboard

    Some chassis’ include plastic studs instead of metal. Although the plastic studs are usable, TYAN recommends using metal studs with screws that will fasten the motherboard more securely in place. Below is a chart detailing what the most common motherboard studs look like and how they should be installed.
  • Page 25: Installing The Memory

    Before installing memory, ensure that the memory you have is compatible with the motherboard and processor. Only DDR2- 667/533/400 DIMM modules are required. Check the TYAN Web site at: www.tyan.com for details of the type of memory recommended for your motherboard.
  • Page 26 Align the memory module with the socket. The memory module is keyed to fit only one way in the socket. Key slot Seat the module firmly into the socket by gently pressing down until it sits flush with the socket. The locking levers pop up into place. http://www.tyan.com...
  • Page 27: Installing The Processor And Cooling Fan

    2.6 - Installing the Processor and Cooling Fan Your Triumph i7230 S6611 supports the latest processor technologies from Intel. Check the TYAN website for latest processor support: http://www.tyan.com Processor Installation (LGA 775 Socket) The processor should be installed carefully. Make sure you are wearing an antistatic strap and handle the processor as little as possible.

  • Page 29 Turn the board upside down and insert the heat sink spring mechanism as shown. Align the heatsink with the four holes around the processor socket. Press the heatsink down until the four screws are securely seated in the holes. Use screw drive to secure the four screws. http://www.tyan.com...
  • Page 30: Attaching Drive Cables

    Attaching Serial ATA Cables The Triumph i7230 is also equipped with 4 Serial ATA (SATA) channels. Connections for these drives are also very simple. There is no need to set Master/Slave jumpers on SATA drives.
