For the latest information about CPU, please visit http://global.msi.com.tw/index. php?func=cpuform2 Important Overheating Overheating will seriously damage the CPU and system. Always make sure the cooling fan can work properly to protect the CPU from overheating. Make sure that you apply an even layer of thermal paste (or thermal tape) between the CPU and the heatsink to enhance heat dissipation. Replacing the CPU While replacing the CPU, always turn off the ATX power supply or unplug the power supply’s power cord from the grounded outlet first to ensure the safety of CPU. Overclocking This mainboard is designed to support overclocking. However, please make sure your components are able to tolerate such abnormal setting, while doing overclocking. Any attempt to operate beyond product specifications is not recommended. We do not guarantee the damages or risks caused by inadequate operation or beyond product specifications.

Meanwhile, do not forget to apply some thermal paste on CPU before installing the heat sink/cooler fan for better heat dispersion. Follow the steps below to install the CPU & cooler correctly. W rong installation will cause the damage of your CPU & mainboard.

1. The CPU socket has a plastic cap

on it to protec t the contac t from damage. Before you install the CPU, always cover it to protect the socket pin.

2. Remove the cap from lever hinge

4. Cell Menu Introduction : This menu is for advanced user who want to overclock

the mainboard. M S-7514 M ainboard D.O.T. Control D.O.T. (Dynamic Overclocking Technology) is an automatic overclocking function, included in the MSITM ’s newly developed Dual Core Center TM Technology. It is designed to detect the load balance of CPU while running programs, and to adjust the best frequency automatically. W hen the mainboard detects system is running programs, it will speed up automatically to make the program run smoothly and faster. W hen the system is temporarily suspending or staying in the low load balance, it will restore the default settings instead. Usually the Dynamic Overclocking Technology will be powered only when users' PC need to run huge amount of data like 3D games or the video process, and the CPU and PCIE frequency need to be boosted up to enhance the overall performance. Important Even though the Dynamic Overclocking Technology is more stable than manual overclocking, basically, it is still risky. We suggest user to make sure that your CPU / memory modules can afford to overclocking regularly first. If you find the PC appears to be unstable or reboot incidentally, it's better to dis able the Dy namic O v erc loc k ing or to lower the lev el of overclocking options. By the way, if you need to conduct overclocking manually, you also need to disable the Dynamic OverClocking first. Intel EIST The Enhanced Intel SpeedStep technology allows you to set the performance level of the microprocessor whether the computer is running on battery or AC power. This field will appear after you installed the CPU which supports speedstep technology. Adjust CPU FSB Frequency (M Hz) This item allows you to set the CPU FSB frequency (in MHz). Adjusted CPU Frequency (M Hz) It shows the adjusted CPU frequency (FSB x Ratio). Read-only. Advance DRAM Configuration Press <Enter> to enter the sub-menu.

These items display the current status of the current DIMM Memory speed information such as memory type, max bandwidth, manufacture, part number, serial number, SDRAM cycle time, and etc. They are read only. En-30 CAS Latency (CL) W hen the DRAM Timing Mode sets to [Manual], the field is adjustable. This controls the CAS latency, which determines the timing delay (in clock cycles) before SDRAM starts a read command after receiving it. tRCD W hen the DRAM Timing Mode sets to [Manual], the field is adjustable. W hen DRAM is refreshed, both rows and columns are addressed separately. This setup item allows you to determine the timing of the transition from RAS (row address strobe) to CAS (column address strobe). The less the clock cycles, the faster the DRAM performance. tRP W hen the DRAM Timing Mode sets to [Manual], the field is adjustable. This setting controls the number of cycles for Row Address Strobe (RAS) to be allowed to pre-charge. If insufficient time is allowed for the RAS to accumulate its charge before DRAM refresh, refresh may be incomplete and DRAM may fail to retain data. This item applies only when synchronous DRAM is installed in the system. tRAS W hen the DRAM Timing Mode sets to [Manual], the field is adjustable. This setting determines the time RAS takes to read from and write to memory cell. TRTP W hen the DRAM Timing Mode sets to [Manual], the field is adjustable. Time interval is between a read and a pre-charge command. TRFC W hen the DRAM Timing M ode sets to [Manual], the field is adjustable. This setting determines the time RFC takes to read from and write to a memory cell. TWR When the DRAM Timing Mode sets to [Manual], the field is adjustable. Minimum time interval between end of write data burst and the start of a pre-charge command. Allows sense amplifiers restore data to cells. TRRD When the DRAM Timing Mode sets to [Manual], the field is adjustable. Specifies the active-to-active delay for different banks. TWTR When the DRAM Timing Mode sets to [Manual], the field is adjustable. Minimum time interval between the end of write data burst and the start of a column-read command. It allows I/O gating to overdrive sense amplifiers before read command starts. En-31 English DRAM Timing Mode Setting to [Auto] enables the advance memory timing automatically to be determined by BIOS. Setting to [Manual] allows you to set advanced memory timings. M S-7514 M ainboard 1N/2N M emory Timing This item controls the SDRAM command rate. Select [1N] makes SDRAM signal controller to run at 1N (N=clock cycles) rate.

Adjust PCI Frequency (MHz) This field allows you to select the PCI frequency (in MHz). Auto Disable DRAM /PCI Frequency W hen set to [Enabled], the system will remove (turn off) clocks from empty DIMM and PCI slots to minimize the electromagnetic interference (EMI). CPU Voltage (V)/ CPU GTL REF0 (V) / CPU GTL REF1 (V)/ DRAM Voltage (V)/ DDR _VREF_CA_A/B (V)/ DDR_VREF_DA_A/B (V)/ MCH Voltage (V)/ MCH GTL REF (V)/ VTT FSB Voltage (V)/ ICH Voltage (V) These items are used to adjust the voltage of CPU, Memory, FSB and chipset. Spread Spectrum W hen the mainboard’s clock generator pulses, the extreme values (spikes) of the pulses create EMI (Electromagnetic Interference). The Spread Spectrum function reduces the EMI generated by modulating the pulses so that the spikes of the pulses are reduced to flatter curves. If you do not have any EMI problem, leave the setting at Disabled for optimal system stability and performance. But if you are plagued by EMI, set to Enabled for EMI reduction. Remember to disable Spread Spectrum if you are overclocking because even a slight jitter can introduce a temporary boost in clock speed which may just cause your overclocked processor to lock up. En-32 English Important

1. If you do not have any EMI problem, leave the setting at [Disabled] for

optimal system stability and performance. But if you are plagued by EMI, select the value of Spread Spectrum for EMI reduction.

2. The greater the Spread Spectrum value is, the greater the EMI is reduced,

and the system will become less stable. For the most suitable Spread Spectrum value, please consult your local EMI regulation.

3. Remember to disable Spread Spectrum if you are overclocking because

even a slight jitter can introduce a temporary boost in clock speed which may just cause your overclocked processor to lock up.
