Introduction

FATAL1TY STORY

Who knew that at age 19, I would

be a World Champion PC gamer.

When I was 13, I actually played

competitive billiards in professional

tournaments and won four or five

games off guys who played at the

highest level. I actually thought of

making a career of it, but at that

young age situations change rapidly.

Because I’ve been blessed with

great hand-eye coordination and a

grasp of mathematics (an important

element in video gaming) I

gravitated to that activity.

GOING PRO

I started professional gaming in 1999 when I entered the CPL (Cyberathlete Professional

League) tournament in Dallas and won $4,000 for coming in third place. Emerging as one of

the top players in the United States, a company interested in sponsoring me flew me to Sweden

to compete against the top 12 players in the world. I won 18 straight games, lost none, and

took first place, becoming the number one ranked Quake III player in the world in the process.

Two months later I followed that success by traveling to Dallas and defending my title as the

world’s best Quake III player, winning the $40,000 grand prize. Since then I’ve traveled the

globe to compete against the best in the world, winning prizes and acclaim, including the 2005

CPL World Tour Championship in New York City for a $150,000 first place finish.

LIVIN’ LARGE

Since my first big tournament wins, I have been a “Professional Cyberathlete”, traveling the

world and livin’ large with lots of International media coverage on outlets such as MTV, ESPN

and G4TV to name only a few. It's unreal - it's crazy. I’m living a dream by playing video

games for a living. I’ve always been athletic and took sports like hockey and football very

seriously, working out and training hard. This discipline helps me become a better gamer and

my drive to be the best has opened the doors necessary to become a professional.

A DREAM

Now, another dream is being realized – building the ultimate gaming computer, made up of the

best parts under my own brand. Quality hardware makes a huge difference in competitions…a

couple more frames per second and everything gets really nice. It's all about getting the

computer processing faster and allowing more fluid movement around the maps.

My vision for Fatal1ty hardware is to allow gamers to focus on the game without worrying

about their equipment, something I’ve preached since I began competing. I don’t want to

worry about my equipment. I want it to be there – over and done with - so I can focus on the

game. I want it to be the fastest and most stable computer equipment on the face of the

planet, so quality is what Fatal1ty brand products will represent.

iv FP-IN9 SLI

FATAL1TY PARTNERS

This is just the beginning. We’re already in development for several new products, and I’m

really grateful to all my Fatal1ty partners for helping make my dreams a reality.

I know there is a business side to all of this, but for me the true reward is making products that

are so good I can win with them – and making them available to fellow gamers. Gaming is my

life, and many fellow gamers around the world are also some of my best friends, so giving back

to the gaming community is really important to me.

1.2 Motherboard Layout

Hardware Setup

FP-IN9 SLI 1-3

1.3 Choosing a Computer Chassis

• Choose a chassis big enough to install this motherboard.

• As some features for this motherboard are implemented by cabling connectors on the

motherboard to indicators and switches or buttons on the chassis, make sure your chassis

supports all the features required.

• If there is a possibility of adopting some more hard drives, make sure your chassis has

sufficient power and space for them.

• Most chassis have alternatives for I/O shield located at the rear panel. Make sure the I/O

shield of the chassis matches the I/O port configuration of this motherboard. You can find

an I/O shield specifically designed for this motherboard in its package.

1.4 Installing Motherboard

Most computer chassis have a base with many

mounting holes to allow the motherboard to be

securely attached, and at the same time, prevent

the system from short circuits. There are two

ways to attach the motherboard to the chassis

base: (1) with studs, or (2) with spacers.

Basically, the best way to attach the board is

with studs. Only if you are unable to do this

should you attach the board with spacers. Line up the holes on the board with the mounting

holes on the chassis. If the holes line up and there are screw holes, you can attach the board

with studs. If the holes line up and there are only slots, you can only attach with spacers. Take

the tip of the spacers and insert them into the slots. After doing this to all the slots, you can

slide the board into position aligned with slots. After the board has been positioned, check to

make sure everything is OK before putting the chassis back on.

※ Always power off the computer and unplug the AC power cord before adding or

removing any peripheral or component. Failing to so may cause severe damage

to your motherboard and/or peripherals. Plug in the AC power cord only after

you have carefully checked everything.

To install this motherboard:

1. Locate all the screw holes on the

motherboard and the chassis base.

2. Place all the studs or spacers needed on

the chassis base and have them tightened.

3. Face the motherboard’s I/O ports toward

the chassis’s rear panel.

4. Line up all the motherboard’s screw holes

with those studs or spacers on the chassis.

5. Install the motherboard with screws and

have them tightened.

※ To prevent shorting the PCB circuit,

please REMOVE the metal studs or

spacers if they are already fastened

on the chassis base and are without

mounting-holes on the motherboard

to align with.

Face the chassis’s rear panel.

1-4 FP-IN9 SLI

1.5 Checking Jumper Settings

• For a 2-pin jumper, plug the

jumper cap on both pins will

make it CLOSE (SHORT).

Remove the jumper cap, or

plug it on either pin

(reserved for future use) will

leave it at OPEN position.

SHORT OPEN

OPEN

• For 3-pin jumper, pin 1~2 or pin 2~3 can be

shorted by plugging the jumper cap in.

Pin 1~2 SHORT

Pin 2~3 SHORT

1.5.1 CMOS Memory Clearing Header and Backup Battery

The time to clear the CMOS memory occurs when (a)

the CMOS data becomes corrupted, (b) you forgot the

supervisor or user password preset in the BIOS menu,

(c) you are unable to boot-up the system because the

CPU ratio/clock was incorrectly set in the BIOS menu,

or (d) whenever there is modification on the CPU or

memory modules.

This header uses a jumper cap to clear the CMOS

memory and have it reconfigured to the default values

stored in BIOS.

• Pins 1 and 2 shorted

(Default): Normal

operation.

• Pins 2 and 3 shorted:

Clear CMOS memory.

To clear the CMOS memory and load in the default values:

1. Power off the system.

2. Set pin 2 and pin 3 shorted by the jumper cap. Wait for a few seconds. Set the jumper

cap back to its default settings --- pin 1 and pin 2 shorted.

3. Power on the system.

4. For incorrect CPU ratio/clock settings in the BIOS, press <Del> key to enter the BIOS

setup menu right after powering on system.

5. Set the CPU operating speed back to its default or an appropriate value.

6. Save and exit the BIOS setup menu.

Hardware Setup

FP-IN9 SLI 1-5

CMOS Backup Battery:

An onboard battery saves the CMOS memory to keep the BIOS information stays on even after

disconnected your system with power source. Nevertheless, this backup battery exhausts after

some five years. Once the error message like “CMOS BATTERY HAS FAILED” or “CMOS

checksum error” displays on monitor, this backup battery is no longer functional and has to

be renewed.

To renew the backup battery:

1. Power off the system and disconnect with AC power source.

2. Remove the exhausted battery.

3. Insert a new CR2032 or equivalent battery. Pay attention to its polarity. The “+” side is its

positive polarity.

4. Connect AC power source and power on the system.

5. Enter the BIOS setup menu. Reconfigure the setup parameters if necessary.

CAUTION:

※ Danger of explosion may arise if the battery is incorrectly renewed.

※ Renew only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the battery

manufacturer.

※ Dispose of used batteries according to the battery manufacturer’s instructions.

1.6 Connecting Chassis Components

1.6.1 ATX Power Connectors

These connectors provide the connection from an ATX power supply. As the plugs from the

power supply fit in only one orientation, find the correct one and push firmly down into these

connectors.

ATXPWR1: ATX 24-Pin Power Connector

The power supply with 20-pin or 24-pin cables can both be connected to this 24-pin connector.

Connect from pin-1 for either type. However, a 20-pin power supply may cause the system

unstable or even unbootable for the sake of insufficient electricity. A minimum power of 300W

or higher is recommended.

ATX12V1: ATX 12V 8-Pin Power Connector

This connector supplies power to CPU. The system will not start without connecting power to

this one.

ATX4P1: Auxiliary 12V Power Connector

This connector provides an auxiliary power source for devices added on PCI Express slots.

Hardware Setup

FP-IN9 SLI 1-7

1.6.2 Front Panel Switches & Indicators Headers

This header is used for connecting switches and LED indicators on the chassis front panel.

Watch the power LED pin position and orientation. The mark “+” align to the pin in the figure

below stands for positive polarity for the LED connection. Please pay attention when connecting

these headers. A wrong orientation will only result in the LED not lighting, but a wrong

connection of the switches could cause system malfunction.

• HLED (Pin 1, 3):

Connects to the HDD LED cable of chassis front panel.

• RST (Pin 5, 7):

Connects to the Reset Switch cable of chassis front panel.

• SPKR (Pin 13, 15, 17, 19):

※ DO NOT scratch the motherboard when installing hardware. An accidental

scratch of a tiny surface-mount component may seriously damage the

motherboard.

※ In order to protect the contact pins, please pay attention to these notices:

1. A maximum 20 cycles of CPU installation is recommended.

2. Never touch the contact pins with fingers or any object.

3. Always put on the cap when the CPU is not in use.

1.7.1 CPU Socket 775

※ The installation procedures vary with different types of CPU fan-and-heatsink

assembly. The one shown here is served for demo only. For detailed

information on how to install the one you bought, refer to its installation

guidelines.

1. Place the board so that the lever-hook of

the socket is on your left side. Use your left

thumb and forefinger to hold the lever hook,

pull it away from the retention tab. Rotate

the lever to fully open position.

2. Use your right-thumb to raise the load

plate. Lift it up to fully open position.

3. Use your right thumb and forefinger to

into the socket. The alignment key must be

located in the notch of package.

1-10 FP-IN9 SLI

5. Use your left hand to hold the load plate,

and use your right thumb to peel the cap off.

The cap plays an important role in

protecting contact pins. In order to

prevent bent pin, PUT ON the cap after

operation or testing.

6. Lower the plate onto the CPU package.

Engage the load lever while gently pressing

down the load plate.

7. Secure the lever with the hook under

retention tab.

8. Place the heatsink and fan assembly onto

the socket. Align the four fasteners toward

the four mounting holes on the motherboard.

1.7.2 DDR2 Memory Slots

To reach the performance of Dual Channel DDR2, the following rules must be obeyed:

• For a 2-DIMM dual-channel installation:

Populate DIMM modules of the same type and size on slots [DIMM1]+[DIMM3], or slots

[DIMM2]+[DIMM4].

• For a 4-DIMM dual-channel installation:

Populate 2 DIMM modules of the same type and size on slots [DIMM1]+[DIMM3], and

another 2 DIMM modules of the same type and size on slots [DIMM2]+[DIMM4].

※ [DIMM1] and [DIMM3] slots are made of the same color.

[DIMM2] and [DIMM4] are made of another same color.

※ Usually there is no hardware or BIOS setup required after adding or removing

memory modules, but you will have to clear the CMOS memory first if any

memory module related problem occurs.

1-12 FP-IN9 SLI

To install system memory:

1. Power off the computer and unplug the

AC power cord before installing or

removing memory modules.

2. Locate the DIMM slot on the board.

3. Hold two edges of the DIMM module

carefully, keep away from touching its

connectors.

4. Align the notch key on the module with

the rib on the slot.

5. Firmly press the module into the slots until the ejector tabs at both sides of the slot

automatically snap into the mounting notch. Do not force the DIMM module in with extra

force as the DIMM module only fits in one direction.

6. To remove the DIMM modules, push the two ejector tabs on the slot outward

simultaneously, and then pull out the DIMM module.

※ Static electricity can damage the electronic components of the computer or

optional boards. Before starting these procedures, ensure that you are

discharged of static electricity by touching a grounded metal object briefly.
