2.3 Installing Memory Modules (DIMM)
This motherboard provides four 240-pin DDR3 (Double Data Rate 3) DIMM
slots, and supports Dual Channel Memory Technology. For dual channel
conguration, you always need to install identical (the same brand, speed,
size and chip-type) DDR3 DIMM pairs.
1. It is unable to activate Dual Channel Memory Technology
with only one memory module installed.
2. It is not allowed to install a DDR or DDR2 memory module
into a DDR3 slot; otherwise, this motherboard and DIMM
may be damaged.
Step 1. Unlock a DIMM slot by pressing the retaining clips outward.
Step 2. Align a DIMM on the slot such that the notch on the DIMM
matches the break on the slot.
The DIMM only ts in one correct orientation. It will cause per-
manent damage to the motherboard and the DIMM if you force
the DIMM into the slot at incorrect orientation.
English
Step 3. Firmly insert the DIMM into the slot until the retaining clips at both
ends fully snap back in place and the DIMM is properly seated.

2.4 Expansion Slots (PCI Express Slots)
There are 7 PCI Express slots and 1 mini_PCI Express slot on this moth-
erboard.
Mini-PCIE Slots: MINI_PCIE1 is used for mini-PCIE cards.
PCIE slots: PCIE2, PCIE4 and PCIE6 (PCIE 2.0 x1 slots) are used for
PCI Express x1 lane width cards, such as a Gigabit LAN card or
SATA2 cards, etc.
PCIE1 (PCIE 3.0 x16 slot) is used for PCI Express x16 lane
width graphics cards.
PCIE3 and PCIE5 (PCIE 3.0 x16 slot) are used for PCI Express
x8 lane width graphics cards, or used to install PCI Express

1. For better thermal environment, please connect a chassis fan to the
motherboard’s chassis fan connector (CHA_FAN1, CHA_FAN2 or
CHA_FAN3) when using multiple graphics cards.
2. Only PCIE1, PCIE3 and PCIE5 slots support Gen 3 speed. To run
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 bracket facing the slot that you intend to use. Keep
the screws for later use.
Step 3. Align the card connector with the slot and press rmly until the
card is completely seated on the slot.
Step 4. Fasten the card to the chassis with screws.

2.7 Installing the System Panel
Connect the power switch, reset switch and system status indicator on the
chassis to this header according to the pin assignments below. Note the
positive and negative pins before connecting the cables.
PWRBTN (Power Switch):
Connect to the power switch on the chassis front panel. You may congure
the way to turn off your system using the power switch.
RESET (Reset Switch):
Connect to the reset switch on the chassis front panel. Press the reset
switch to restart the computer if the computer freezes and fails to perform
a normal restart.

is on when the system is operating. The LED keeps blinking when the sys-
tem is in S1/S3 sleep state. The LED is off when the system is in S4 sleep
state or powered off (S5).
HDLED (Hard Drive Activity LED):
Connect to the hard drive activity LED on the chassis front panel. The LED
is on when the hard drive is reading or writing data.
The front panel design may differ by chassis. A front panel module mainly
consists of power switch, reset switch, power LED, hard drive activity LED,
speaker and etc. When connecting your chassis front panel module to
this header, make sure the wire assignments and the pin assignments are
matched correctly.
The white wires are negative (Connect to - or GND pins),
while the colored ones are positive.

2.9 Jumpers Setup
The illustration shows how jumpers are
setup. When the jumper cap is placed
on the pins, the jumper is “Short”. If
no jumper cap is placed on the pins,
the jumper is “Open”. The illustration
shows a 3-pin jumper whose pin1 and
pin2 are “Short” when a jumper cap is
placed on these 2 pins.
Clear CMOS Jumper
(CLRCMOS1)
Clear CMOSDefault
(see p.2, No. 24)
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 action. 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.
