This motherboard carries a Micro ATX form factor of x mm. Choose a case that accommodates this form factor. Refer to the following illustration and instructions for installing the motherboard in a case.
Most system cases have mounting brackets installed in the case, which correspond the holes in the motherboard. Place the motherboard over the mounting brackets and secure the motherboard onto the mounting brackets with screws. This section explains how to set jumpers for correct configuration of the motherboard.
Use the motherboard jumpers to set system configuration options. Jumpers with more than one pin are numbered. When setting the jumpers, ensure that the jumper caps are placed on the correct pins.
The following illustration shows the location of the motherboard jumpers. Pin 1 is labeled. After you have installed the motherboard into a case, you can begin connecting the motherboard components. Refer to the following:. Users please note that the pin and pin power cables can both be connected to the ATX1 connector.
With the pin power cable, just align the 20pin power cable with the pin 1 of the ATX1 connector. However, using pin power cable may cause the system to become unbootable or unstable because of insufficient electricity. A minimum power of W is recommended for a fullyconfigured system. Users please note that the fan connector supports the CPU cooling fan of 1. Refer to the table below for information:. Connecting pins 1 and 3 to a front panel mounted LED provides visual indication that data is being read from or written to the hard drive.
Supporting the reset function requires connecting pin 5 and 7 to a momentary-contact switch that is normally open. When the switch is closed, the board resets and runs POST. The switch should maintain contact for at least 50 ms to signal the power supply to switch on or off. The time requirement is due to internal debounce circuitry.
Caution: When installing a CPU heatsink and cooling fan make sure that you DO NOT scratch the motherboard or any of the surface-mount resistors with the clip of the cooling fan. If the clip of the cooling fan scrapes across the motherboard, you may cause serious damage to the motherboard or its components.
On most motherboards, there are small surface-mount resistors near the processor socket, which may be damaged if the cooling fan is carelessly installed.
Avoid using cooling fans with sharp edges on the fan casing and the clips. Also, install the cooling fan in a well-lit work area so that you can clearly see the motherboard and processor socket. This motherboard automatically determines the CPU clock frequency and system bus frequency for the processor. You may be able to change these settings by making changes to jumpers on the motherboard, or changing the settings in the system Setup Utility. We strongly recommend that you do not over-clock processors or other components to run faster than their rated speed.
Warning: Over-clocking components can adversely affect the reliability of the system and introduce errors into your system. Over-clocking can permanently damage the motherboard by generating excess heat in components that are run beyond the rated limits. This motherboard has an LGA socket. When choosing a processor, consider the performance requirements of the system. Performance is based on the processor design, the clock speed and system bus frequency of the processor, and the quantity of internal cache memory and external cache memory.
Read and follow the instructions shown on the sticker on the CPU cap. Be careful not to touch the contacts. Install the CPU on the socket. Apply thermal grease on top of the CPU. Fasten the cooling fan supporting base onto the CPU socket on the motherboard. To achieve better airflow rates and heat dissipation, we suggest that you use a high quality fan with rpm at least.
This motherboard accommodates four memory modules. The total memory support capacity is 4 GB. You must install at least one module in any of the two slots. Each module can be installed with 2 GB of memory; total support memory capacity is 4 GB. 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 grounding strap when you handle the modules. The slot latches are levered upwards and latch on to the edges of the DIMM. The following DDR2 memory modules have been tested and qualified for use with this motherboard. Your motherboard has two IDE channels interface.
This motherboard supports two high data transfer SATA ports with each runs up to 1. The second drive on this controller must be set to slave mode. The configuration is the same as IDE1. The documentation of your IDE device explains how to do this. Max SATA 1. Verified Owner. Overall Review: I could go for a Dew about now. Did you? Yes No. Ron D. Pros: Nice Box Cons: D. A Video curcuit dead IDE slots positioned terribly.
Did you find this review helpful? Randall A. Pros: None Cons: Faulty random crashes. Cons: Only has single channel memory. Cons: None. If the tech specs meet your needs, there are no cons. Rhonda D. Return Policies Return for refund within: 30 days Return for replacement within: 30 days.
