Chapter 1 Hardware Installation

1-1 Installation Precautions

The motherboard contains numerous delicate electronic circuits and components which can become

damagedasaresultofelectrostaticdischarge(ESD).Priortoinstallation,carefullyreadtheuser's

manual and follow these procedures:

•Prior to installation, make sure the chassis is suitable for the motherboard.

•Priortoinstallation,donotremoveorbreakmotherboardS/N(SerialNumber)stickeror

warranty sticker provided by your dealer. These stickers are required for warranty validation.

•Always remove the AC power by unplugging the power cord from the power outlet before

installing or removing the motherboard or other hardware components.

•When connecting hardware components to the internal connectors on the motherboard, make

sure they are connected tightly and securely.

•When handling the motherboard, avoid touching any metal leads or connectors.

•It is best to wear an electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist strap when handling electronic

componentssuchasamotherboard,CPUormemory.IfyoudonothaveanESDwriststrap,

keepyourhandsdryandrsttouchametalobjecttoeliminatestaticelectricity.

•Prior to installing the motherboard, please have it on top of an antistatic pad or within an

electrostatic shielding container.

•Before connecting or unplugging the power supply cable from the motherboard, make sure

the power supply has been turned off.

•Before turning on the power, make sure the power supply voltage has been set according to

the local voltage standard.

•Before using the product, please verify that all cables and power connectors of your hardware

components are connected.

•To prevent damage to the motherboard, do not allow screws to come in contact with the

motherboard circuit or its components.

•Make sure there are no leftover screws or metal components placed on the motherboard or

within the computer casing.

•Donotplacethecomputersystemonanunevensurface.

•Donotplacethecomputersysteminahigh-temperatureorwetenvironment.

•Turning on the computer power during the installation process can lead to damage to system

components as well as physical harm to the user.

•If you are uncertain about any installation steps or have a problem related to the use of the

product,pleaseconsultacertiedcomputertechnician.

•If you use an adapter, extension power cable, or power strip, ensure to consult with its installation

and/or grounding instructions.

1-3 Installing the CPU

ReadthefollowingguidelinesbeforeyoubegintoinstalltheCPU:

•Make sure that the motherboard supports the CPU.

(GotoGIGABYTE'swebsiteforthelatestCPUsupportlist.)

•Always turn off the computer and unplug the power cord from the power outlet before installing the

CPU to prevent hardware damage.

•Locate the pin one of the CPU. The CPU cannot be inserted if oriented incorrectly. (Or you may locate

thenotchesonbothsidesoftheCPUandalignmentkeysontheCPUsocket.)

•Apply an even and thin layer of thermal grease on the surface of the CPU.

•DonotturnonthecomputeriftheCPUcoolerisnotinstalled,otherwiseoverheatinganddamage

of the CPU may occur.

•Setthe CPUhost frequencyinaccordancewiththe CPUspecications. Itis notrecommended

thatthesystembusfrequencybesetbeyondhardwarespecicationssinceitdoesnotmeetthe

standard requirements for the peripherals. If you wish to set the frequency beyond the standard

specications,pleasedosoaccordingtoyourhardwarespecicationsincludingtheCPU,graphics

card, memory, hard drive, etc.

Installing the CPU

Locate the alignment keys on the motherboard CPU socket and the notches on the CPU.

Do not remove the CPU socket cover before inserting the CPU. It may pop off from the load

plate automatically during the process of re-engaging the lever after you insert the CPU.

1-4 Installing the Memory

Readthefollowingguidelinesbeforeyoubegintoinstallthememory:

•Make sure that the motherboard supports the memory. It is recommended that memory of the same

capacity, brand, speed, and chips be used.

(GotoGIGABYTE'swebsiteforthelatestsupportedmemoryspeedsandmemorymodules.)

•Always turn off the computer and unplug the power cord from the power outlet before installing the

memory to prevent hardware damage.

•Memory modules have a foolproof design. A memory module can be installed in only one direction.

If you are unable to insert the memory, switch the direction.

DualChannelMemoryConguration

ThismotherboardprovidestwomemorysocketsandsupportsDualChannelTechnology.Afterthememory

isinstalled,theBIOSwillautomaticallydetectthespecicationsandcapacityofthememory.EnablingDual

Channel memory mode will double the original memory bandwidth.

1-5 Installing an Expansion Card

Readthefollowingguidelinesbeforeyoubegintoinstallanexpansioncard:

•Make sure the motherboard supports the expansion card. Carefully read the manual that came

with your expansion card.

•Always turn off the computer and unplug the power cord from the power outlet before installing an

expansion card to prevent hardware damage.

DuetoCPUlimitations,readthefollowingguidelinesbeforeinstallingthememoryinDualChannelmode.

1. DualChannelmodecannotbeenabledifonlyonememorymoduleisinstalled.

2. WhenenablingDualChannelmodewithtwomemorymodules,itisrecommendedthatmemoryof

the same capacity, brand, speed, and chips be used for optimum performance.

The two memory sockets are divided into two channels and each channel has one memory socket as following:

ChannelA:DDR4_1

ChannelB:DDR4_2
