Hardware Setup

This chapter provides you with the information about hardware setup

procedures. While doing the installation, be careful in holding the components

and follow the installation procedures. For some components, if you install in

the wrong orientation, the components will not work properly.

Use a grounded wrist strap before handling computer components. Static

electricity may damage the components.

Central Processing Unit: CPU

The mainboard supports Intel®Pentium®4 processor in the 478 pin

package. The mainboard uses a CPU socket called PGA478 for easy CPU

installation. When you are installing the CPU, make sure the CPU has a heat

sink and a cooling fan attached on the top to prevent overheating. If you do not

find the heat sink and cooling fan, contact your dealer to purchase and install

them before turning on the computer.

1. Pull the lever sideways away

from the socket. Then, raise

the lever up to a 90-degree

angle.

2. Look for the gold arrow. The

gold arrow should point to-

wards the lever pivot. The

CPU will only fit in the correct

orientation.

3. Hold the CPU down firmly,

and then close the lever to

complete the installation.

CPU Installation Procedures

Overheating will seriously damage the CPU and system,

always make sure the cooling fan can work properly to

protect the CPU from overheating.

Installing the CPU Fan

As processor technology pushes to faster speeds and higher

performance, thermal management becomes increasingly important. To dissi-

pate heat, you need to attach the CPU cooling fan and heatsink on top of the

CPU. Please note that the following installation procedures are for your reference

only. The actual CPU cooling fan and heatsink that come with your purchase

may be different from the pictures shown below.

2. Position the heatsink onto the re-

tention mechanism.

1. Locate the CPU and its retention

mechanism on the motherboard.

3. Mount the fan on top of the

heatsink. Press down the fan until

its four clips get wedged in the

holes of the retention mechanism.

4. Press the two levers down to

fasten the fan. Each lever can be

pressed down in only ONE

direction.

CPU Core Speed Derivation Procedure

If CPU Clock = 100MHz

Core/Bus ratio = 14

then CPU core speed = Host Clock x Core/Bus ratio

= 100MHzx14

= 1.4GHz

5. Connect the fan power cable from the mounted fan to the 3-pin fan power

connector on the board.

The mainboard provides 2 slots for 184-pin, 2.5V unbuffered DDR DIMM

with 4 memory banks. You can install PC1600/PC2100 DDR SDRAM modules

on the DDR DIMM slots (DDR 1~2). To operate properly, at least one DIMM

module must be installed.

Memory

Introduction to DDR SDRAM

DDR (Double Data Rate) SDRAM is similar to conventional SDRAM,

but doubles the rate by transferring data twice per cycle. It uses 2.5 volts as

opposed to 3.3 volts used in SDR SDRAM, and requires 184-pin DIMM mod-

ules rather than 168-pin DIMM modules used by SDR SDRAM. High memory

bandwidth makes DDR an ideal solution for high performance PC, worksta-

tions and servers.
