CPU Installation Procedure
The following illustration shows CPU installation components.
1
Install your CPU. Pull up the lever away from
the socket and lift up to 90-degree angle.
2
Locate the CPU cut edge (the corner with
the pin hold noticeably missing). Align and
insert the CPU correctly.
3
Press the lever down and apply thermal
grease on top of the CPU.
4
Put the CPU Fan down on the retention mod-
ule and snap the four retention legs of the
cooling fan into place.
5
Flip the levers over to lock the heat sink in
place and connect the CPU cooling Fan power
cable to the CPU FAN connector. This com-
pletes the installation.
To achieve better airflow rates and heat dissipation, we suggest that you
use a high quality fan with 4800 rpm at least. CPU fan and heatsink
installation procedures may vary with the type of CPU fan/heatsink sup-
plied. The form and size of fan/heatsink may also vary.
Installing Memory Modules
This motherboard accommodates two memory modules. It can support two 240-pin DDR3
2600(OC)/2400 (OC)/2133 (OC)/1866/1600/1333/1066*
DDR3 SDRAM memory module table
You must install at least one module in any of the two slots. Each module can be installed
with 16 GB of memory.
Do not remove any memory module from its antistatic packaging until you
are ready to install it on the motherboard. Handle the modules only by their
edges. Do not touch the components or metal parts. Always wear a ground-
ing strap when you handle the modules.
