2.6 Expansion Slots (PCI and PCI Express Slots)
There are 2 PCI slots and 3 PCI Express slots on this motherboard.
PCI slots: PCI slots are used to install expansion cards that have the 32-bit PCI
interface.
PCIE slots: PCIE1 (PCIE 3.0 x16 slot) is used for PCI Express x16 lane width
graphics cards, or to install PCI Express graphics cards to support
TM
CrossFireX
.
PCIE2 (PCIE 2.0 x1 slot) is used for a PCI Express x1 lane width card,
such as a Gigabit LAN card, SATA2 card or ASRock Game Blaster, etc.
PCIE3 (PCIE 2.0 x16 slot) is used for PCI Express x4 lane width graph-
ics cards, or to install PCI Express graphics cards to support
TM
CrossFireX
.
1. In single VGA card mode, it is recommended to install a PCI Express
x16 graphics card on PCIE1 slot.
TM
2. In CrossFireX
mode, please install the PCI Express x16 graphics
cards on PCIE1 and PCIE3 slots. Therefore, PCIE1 will work at x16
bandwidth, while PCIE3 works at x4 bandwidth.
3. Please connect a chassis fan to the motherboard’s chassis fan
connector (CHA_FAN1 or CHA_FAN2) when using multiple
graphics cards for better thermal environment.
4. Only PCIE1 slot supports Gen 3 speed. To run the PCI Express in
Gen 3 speed, please install an Ivy Bridge CPU. If you install a Sandy
Bridge CPU, the PCI Express will run only at PCI Express Gen 2
speed.
Installing an expansion card
Step 1. Before installing an expansion card, please make sure that the power
supply is switched off or the power cord is unplugged. Please read the
documentation of the expansion card and make necessary hardware
settings for the card before you start the installation.
Step 2. Remove the system unit cover (if your motherboard is already installed
in a chassis).
Step 3. Remove the bracket facing the slot that you intend to use. Keep the
screws for later use.
Step 4. Align the card connector with the slot and press rmly until the card is
completely seated on the slot.
English
Step 5. Fasten the card to the chassis with screws.
Step 6. Replace the system cover.

2.8 Dual Monitor and Surround Display Features
Dual Monitor Feature
This motherboard supports dual monitor feature. With the internal VGA output sup-
port (DVI-D, D-Sub and HDMI), you can easily enjoy the benets of dual monitor
feature without installing any add-on VGA cards to this motherboard. This mother-
board also provides independent display controllers for DVI-D, D-Sub and HDMI to
support dual VGA output so that DVI-D, D-sub and HDMI can drive same or different
display contents.
To enable dual monitor feature, please follow the steps below:
1. Connect a DVI-D monitor cable to the DVI-D port on the I/O panel, connect a
D-Sub monitor cable to the D-Sub port on the I/O panel and connect a HDMI
monitor cable to the HDMI port on the I/O panel.
D-Sub port
DVI-D port
HDMI port
2. If you have already installed the onboard VGA driver from our support CD to your
system, you can freely enjoy the benets of dual monitor function after your
system boots. If you haven’t installed the onboard VGA driver yet, please install
the onboard VGA driver from our support CD to your system and restart your
computer.
D-Sub, DVI-D and HDMI monitors cannot be enabled at the same time.
You can only choose the combination: DVI-D + HDMI, DVI-D + D-Sub,
or HDMI + D-Sub.

Surround Display Feature
This motherboard supports surround display upgrade. With the internal VGA output
support (DVI-D, D-Sub and HDMI) and external add-on PCI Express VGA cards,
you can easily enjoy the benets of surround display feature.
Please refer to the following steps to set up a surround display environment:
1. Install the PCI Express VGA cards on PCIE1 and PCIE3 slots. Please refer to
page 21 for proper expansion card installation procedures.
2. Connect a DVI-D monitor cable to the DVI-D port on the I/O panel, connect a
D-Sub monitor cable to the D-Sub port on the I/O panel and connect a HDMI
monitor cable to the HDMI port on the I/O panel. Then connect other monitor
cables to the corresponding connectors of the add-on PCI Express VGA cards on
PCIE1 and PCIE3 slots.
3. Boot your system. Press <F2> or <Del> to enter UEFI setup. Enter “Share
Memory” option to adjust the memory capability to [32MB], [64MB], [128MB],
[256MB] or [512MB] to enable the function of D-sub. Please make sure that the
value you select is less than the total capability of the system memory. If you do
not adjust the UEFI setup, the default value of “Share Memory”, [Auto], will
disable D-Sub function when an add-on VGA card is inserted to this motherboard.
4. Install the onboard VGA driver and the add-on PCI Express VGA card driver to
your system. If you have installed the drivers already, there is no need to install
them again.
5. Set up a multi-monitor display.
®
For Windows

HDCP Function
HDCP function is supported on this motherboard. To use HDCP
function with this motherboard, you need to adopt a monitor
that supports HDCP function as well. Therefore, you can enjoy
the superior display quality with high-denition HDCP
encryption contents. Please refer to the instructions below for
more details about HDCP function.
What is HDCP?
HDCP stands for High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection, a
®
specication developed by Intel
for protecting digital
entertainment content that uses the DVI interface. HDCP is a
copy protection scheme to eliminate the possibility of
intercepting digital data midstream between the video source,
or transmitter - such as a computer, DVD player or set-top box -
and the digital display, or receiver - such as a monitor, television
or projector. In other words, HDCP specication is designed to
protect the integrity of content as it is being transmitted.
English
Products compatible with the HDCP scheme such as DVD
players, satellite and cable HDTV set-top-boxes, as well as few
entertainment PCs requires a secure connection to a compliant
display. Due to the increase in manufacturers employing HDCP
in their equipment, it is highly recommended that the HDTV or
LCD monitor you purchase is compatible.

2.9 Jumpers Setup
The illustration shows how jumpers are
setup. When the jumper cap is placed on
pins, the jumper is “Short”. If no jumper cap
is placed on pins, the jumper is “Open”. The
illustration shows a 3-pin jumper whose
pin1 and pin2 are “Short” when jumper cap
is placed on these 2 pins.
Jumper Setting Description
Clear CMOS Jumper
(CLRCMOS1)
(see p.4, No. 12)
Clear CMOSDefault
Note: CLRCMOS1 allows you to clear the data in CMOS. To clear and reset the
system parameters to default setup, please turn off the computer and unplug
the power cord from the power supply. After waiting for 15 seconds, use a
jumper cap to short pin2 and pin3 on CLRCMOS1 for 5 seconds. However,
please do not clear the CMOS right after you update the BIOS. If you need
to clear the CMOS when you just nish updating the BIOS, you must boot
up the system rst, and then shut it down before you do the clear-CMOS ac-
tion. Please be noted that the password, date, time, user default prole, 1394
GUID and MAC address will be cleared only if the CMOS battery is removed.
The Clear CMOS Switch has the same function as the Clear CMOS
jumper.
