Installing Hardware

Installing the Processor

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.

Before installing the Processor

This motherboard automatically determines the CPU clock frequency and system busfrequency for the

processor. You may be able to change 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: 1. 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.

2. Always remove the AC power by unplugging the power cord from the power

outlet before installing or removing the motherboard or other hardware components.

This motherboard has an LGA775 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.
