Before you resume the system, please check if the CPU fan on the
motherboard functions properly and unplug the power cord, then plug it
back again. To improve heat dissipation, remember to spray thermal
grease between the CPU and the heatsink when you install the PC
system.
18. This motherboard supports ASRock AM2 Boost overclocking technology
for AM2 CPU. If you enable this function in the BIOS setup, the memory
performance will improve up to 12.5%, but the effect still depends on the
AM2 CPU you adopt. Enabling this function will overclock the chipset/CPU
reference clock. However, we can not guarantee the system stability for all
CPU/DRAM configurations. If your system is unstable after AM2 Boost func-
tion is enabled, it may not be applicative to your system. You may choose to
disable this function for keeping the stability of your system.

This is an ATX form factor (12.0-in x 8.8-in, 30.5 cm x 22.4 cm) motherboard.
Before you install the motherboard, study the configuration of your chassis to en-
sure that the motherboard fits into it.
Pre-installation PrecautionsPre-installation Precautions
Pre-installation PrecautionsPre-installation Precautions
Pre-installation Precautions
Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard
components or change any motherboard settings.
Before you install or remove any component, ensure that the
power is switched off or the power cord is detached from the
power supply. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to the
motherboard, peripherals, and/or components.
1. Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any
component.
2. To avoid damaging the motherboard components due to static
electricity, NEVER place your motherboard directly on the carpet or
the like. Also remember to use a grounded wrist strap or touch a
safety grounded object before you handle components.
3. Hold components by the edges and do not touch the ICs.
4. Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded anti-
static pad or in the bag that comes with the component.
5. When placing screws into the screw holes to secure the motherboard
to the chassis, please do not over-tighten the screws! Doing so may
damage the motherboard.

Step 1. Unlock the socket by lifting the lever up to a 90
o
angle.
Step 2. Position the CPU directly above the socket such that the CPU corner with
the golden triangle matches the socket corner with a small triangle.
Step 3. Carefully insert the CPU into the socket until it fits in place.
The CPU fits only in one correct orientation. DO NOT force the CPU
into the socket to avoid bending of the pins.
Step 4. When the CPU is in place, press it firmly on the socket while you push
down the socket lever to secure the CPU. The lever clicks on the side tab
to indicate that it is locked.

Installation of CPU Fan and Heatsink
After you install the CPU into this motherboard, it is necessary to install a
larger heatsink and cooling fan to dissipate heat. You also need to spray
thermal grease between the CPU and the heatsink to improve heat
dissipation. Make sure that the CPU and the heatsink are securely fas-
tened and in good contact with each other. Then connect the CPU fan to
the CPU FAN connector (CPU_FAN1, see Page 2, No. 4). For proper
installation, please kindly refer to the instruction manuals of the CPU fan
and the heatsink.

This motherboard provides four 240-pin DDR2 (Double Data Rate 2) DIMM slots,
and supports Dual Channel Memory Technology. For dual channel configuration,
you always need to install identical (the same brand, speed, size and chip-type)
DDR2 DIMM pair in the slots of the same color. In other words, you have to install
identical DDR2 DIMM pair in Dual Channel A (DDRII_1 and DDRII_2; Yellow slots;
see p.2 No.7) or identical DDR2 DIMM pair in Dual Channel B (DDRII_3 and
DDRII_4; Orange slots; see p.2 No.8), so that Dual Channel Memory Technology
can be activated. This motherboard also allows you to install four DDR2 DIMMs for
dual channel configuration, and please install identical DDR2 DIMMs in all four
slots. You may refer to the Dual Channel Memory Configuration Table below.
Dual Channel Memory Configurations

(1) Populated Populated - -
(2) - - Populated Populated
(3)* Populated Populated Populated Populated
* For the configuration (3), please install identical DDR2 DIMMs in all four slots.
1. If you want to install two memory modules, for optimal compatibil-
ity and reliability, it is recommended to install them in the slots of
the same color. In other words, install them either in the set of
yellow slots (DDRII_1 and DDRII_2), or in the set of orange slots
(DDRII_3 and DDRII_4).
2. If only one memory module or three memory modules are in-
stalled in the DDR2 DIMM slots on this motherboard, it is unable to
activate the Dual Channel Memory Technology.
3. If a pair of memory modules is NOT installed in the same Dual
Channel, for example, installing a pair of memory modules in
DDRII_1 and DDRII_3, it is unable to activate the Dual Channel
Memory Technology .
4. It is not allowed to install a DDR memory module into DDR2 slot;
otherwise, this motherboard and DIMM may be damaged.

Installing a DIMM
Please make sure to disconnect power supply before adding or
removing DIMMs or the system components.
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 fits in one correct orientation. It will cause permanent
damage to the motherboard and the DIMM if you force the DIMM into the
slot at incorrect orientation.
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.

Installing an expansion card
Step 1. Before installing the 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 firmly until the card is
completely seated on the slot.
Step 5. Fasten the card to the chassis with screws.
Step 6. Replace the system cover.
1. If you plan to install only one PCI Express VGA card on this
motherboard, please install it on PCIE2 slot (Green). In this mode,
you do not need to adjust the default setting of ASRock SLI/XFire
Switch Card, and please do not remove or lose ASRock SLI/XFire
Switch Card when it is still in working condition.
2. For the information of the compatible SLI

Step 1. There is one ASRock SLI/XFire Switch Card factory-mounted on this
motherboard. This card served as a switch between the default mode (x16)
and SLI mode (x8 / x8). ASRock SLI/XFire Switch Card is factory-mounted
with its default mode (x16) side toward the retention slot base.
Step 2. To change it to SLI Mode, you need to reverse the direction of ASRock SLI/
XFire Switch Card. Please simultaneously pull open both the retention arms
that hold the card in position. The card itself will spring away from the
retention slot. Take it out gently by holding its edges, and keep away from
touching the connectors (Golden Fingers).

the GPU chips version shall be the same.) Insert one graphics card into PCIE2
slot and another graphics card to PCIE3 slot. Make sure that the cards are
properly seated on the slots.
Step 6. If required, connect an auxiliary power source to the PCI Express graphics
cards.
Step 7. Align and insert the SLI Bridge to the goldfingers on each graphics card. Make
sure that the SLI Bridge is firmly in place.
Step 3. Reverse the card direction so as to have the “X8 / X8 MODE” wording side
toward the retention slot base. Insert the card into the bottom of the base.
Step 4. Push the card down into the retention slot till both the retention arms firmly
hold the card into position. Also, keep away from touching the connectors
