    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 21: Installing The Processor(S)

    2.5 - Installing the Processor(s) Your Tempest i5400PW S5397 supports the latest processor technologies from Intel. Check the TYAN website (http://www.tyan.com) for latest processor support. The Tempest i5400W S5397 is extended ATX form factor with proprietary CPU heatsink mounting hole locations. We provide the CPU heatsink mounting plate kit for users to adopt SSI EEB-3.51-and-beyond compliant chassis.
  • Page 22 Select the most suitable stand-off for your chassis, and fasten them onto the CPU heatsink mounting plate. They are the stand-offs to which you mount CPU heatsink later. Chassis Stand-off Height Mounting Plate Stand-off Height 3.5mm – 4.5mm 4.5mm – 5.5mm 5.5mm – 6.5mm http://www.tyan.com...
  • Page 23 Install the mainboard into the chassis. Align CPU heatsink mounting holes with 8 stand-offs on the CPU heatsink mounting plate. Follow the processor installation process to install CPU(s). Place the CPU heatsink(s) on top of CPU(s) and fasten CPU heatsink(s) with screws. http://www.tyan.com...

Turn the board upside down and insert the heat sink spring mechanism as shown. Turn the board the right way up again and screw the heat sink into place. http://www.tyan.com...
  • Page 26 Try and apply a thin, even layer over the top of the processor. 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 27: Installing The Memory

    Before installing memory, ensure that the memory you have is compatible with the motherboard and processor. Only DDR2-800/667/533 Fully Buffer DIMM (FB 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 28 5VSB maximum (see Figure 1) of your power supply and make sure it is 4.5A or higher. Otherwise, the system will fail to boot up. Please refer to our web site at http://www.tyan.com for the recommended memory list. Figure 1...
  • Page 29 Memory Installation Procedure Follow these instructions to install memory modules into the Tempest i5400PW S5397. Press the locking levers in the direction shown in the following illustration. Align the memory module with the socket. The memory module is keyed to fit only one way in the socket.
  • Page 30: Attaching Drive Cables

    Attaching IDE Drive Cable Attaching the IDE drive cable is simple. These cables are “keyed” to only allow them to be connected in the correct manner. TYAN motherboards have two on- board IDE channels, each supporting two drives. The black connector designates the Primary channel, while the white connector designates the Secondary channel.
  • Page 31 TYAN has supplied two SATA cables and one SATA power adapter. If you are in need of other cables or power adapters please contact your place of purchase. The following pictures illustrate how to connect an SATA drive 1.SATA drive cable connection 2.
