Screw Holes
When you nstall the manboard, you have to place the manboard nto the chasss n the correct drecton. The locatons of screws holes on the manboard are shown as below.

The sde has to toward the rear, the poston for the I/O sheld of the chasss.

Screw holes

Refer above pcture to nstall standoffs n the approprate locatons on chasss and then screw through the manboard screw holes nto the standoffs.

Important
To prevent damage to the manboard, any contact between the manboard crcut and chasss or unnecessary standoffs mounted on the chasss s prohbted. Please make sure there are no metal components placed on the manboard or wthn the chasss that may cause short crcut of the manboard.

Hardware Setup

CPU (Central Processng Unt)

When you are nstallng the CPU, make sure to nstall the cooler to prevent overheatng. If you do not have the CPU cooler, consult your dealer before turnng on the computer. For the latest nformaton about CPU, please vst http://www.ms.com/servce/cpu-support

Important
Overheatng Overheatng wll serously damage the CPU and system. Always make sure the coolng fan can work properly to protect the CPU from overheatng. Make sure that you apply an even layer of thermal paste (or thermal tape) between the CPU and the heatsnk to enhance heat dsspaton. Replacng the CPU Whle replacng the CPU, always turn off the ATX power supply or unplug the power supplys power cord from the grounded outlet first to ensure the safety of CPU. Overclockng Ths manboard s desgned to support overclockng. However, please make sure your components are able to tolerate such abnormal settng, whle dong overclockng. Any attempt to operate beyond product specficatons s not recommended. We do not guarantee the damages or rsks caused by nadequate operaton or beyond product specficatons.

CPU & Cooler Installaton

When you are nstallng the CPU, make sure the CPU has a cooler attached on the top to prevent overheatng. Meanwhle, do not forget to apply some thermal paste on CPU before nstallng the heat snk/cooler fan for better heat dsperson. Follow the steps below to nstall the CPU & cooler correctly. Wrong nstallaton wll cause the damage of your CPU & manboard.

Chapter 2

1. Open the load level.

2. Lft the load lever up to fully open poston

3. The CPU socket has a plastc cap on t to protect the contact from damage. Before you nstall CPU, always cover t to protect the socket pn. Romove the cap (as the arrow shows).

4. After confirmng the CPU drecton for correct matng, put down the CPU n the socket housng frame. Be sure to grasp on the edge of the CPU base. Note that the algnment keys are matched.

Important
Read the CPU status n BIOS. Whenever CPU s not nstalled, always protect your CPU socket pn wth the plastc cap covered (shown n Fgure 1) to avod damagng. Manboard photos shown n ths secton are for demonstraton of the CPU/ cooler nstallaton only. The appearance of your manboard may vary dependng on the model you purchase.
