Screw Holes When you install the mainboard, you have to place the mainboard into the chassis in the correct direction. The locations of screws holes on the mainboard are shown as below. SOCKET AM3 The side has to toward the rear, the position for the I/O shield of the chassis. Screw holes Refer above picture to install standoffs in the appropriate locations on chassis and then screw through the mainboard screw holes into the standoffs. Important

• To prevent damage to the mainboard, any contact between the mainboard circuit and chassis or unnecessary standoffs mounted on the chassis is prohibited.
• Please make sure there is no metal components placed on the mainboard or within the chassis that may cause short circuit of the mainboard.

MS-7715 REAR PANEL The rear panel provides the following connectors: LAN Mouse Keyboard (optional) Serial port USB 2.0 ports Line-In Line-Out MIC HARDWARE SETUP CPU & Cooler Installation for AM3 When you are installing the CPU, make sure the CPU has a cooler attached on the top to prevent overheating. Meanwhile, do not forget to apply some thermal paste on CPU before installing the heat sink/cooler fan for better heat dispersion. The surface of AM3 CPU. Remember to apply some thermal paste on it for better heat dispersion. Gold arrow

Follow the steps below to install the CPU & cooler correctly. Wrong installation will cause the damage of your CPU & mainboard.

Pull the lever sideways away from the socket. Make sure to raise the lever up to a 90-degree angle.

Look for the gold arrow of the CPU. The gold arrow should point as shown in the picture. The CPU can only fit in the correct orientation.

If the CPU is correctly installed, the pins should be completely embedded into the socket and can not be seen. Please note that any violation of the correct installation procedures may cause permanent damages to your mainboard.

Press the CPU down firmly into the socket and close the lever. As the CPU is likely to move while the lever is being closed, always close the lever with your fingers pressing tightly on top of the CPU to make sure the CPU is properly and completely embedded into the socket.

Position the cooling set onto the retention mechanism. Hook one end of the clip to hook first.

Then press down the other end of the clip to fasten the cooling set on the top of the retention mechanism. Locate the Fix Lever and lift up it .

Attach the CPU Fan cable to the CPU fan connector on the mainboard. Important

• Mainboard photos shown in this section are for demonstration of the cooler installation for Socket AM3 CPUs only. The appearance of your mainboard may vary depending on the model you purchase.
• While disconnecting the Safety Hook from the fixed bolt, it is necessary to keep an eye on your fingers, because once the Safety Hook is disconnected from the fixed bolt, the fixed lever will spring back instantly.

MS-7715 Installing Memory Modules . The memory module has only one notch on the center and will only fit in the right orientation.

Insert the memory module vertically into the DIMM slot. Then push it in until the golden finger on the memory module is deeply inserted in the DIMM slot. You can barely see the golden finger if the memory module is properly inserted in the DIMM slot.

Manually check if the memory module has been locked in place by the DIMM slot clips at the sides. Volt Notch Important

• In Dual-Channel mode, make sure that you install memory modules of the same type and density in different channel DIMM slots.
• To ensure a successful system boot-up, always insert the memory modules into the DIMM1 first.

ATX 24-Pin Power Connector: JPWR1 This connector allows you to connect an ATX 24-pin power supply. To connect the ATX 24-pin power supply, make sure the plug of the power supply is inserted in the proper orientation and the pins are aligned. Then push down the power supply firmly into the connector.

ATX 8-Pin Power Connector: JPWR2 This 8-Pin power connector is used to provide power to the CPU.

Important Make sure that all the connectors are connected to proper ATX power supplies to ensure stable operation of the mainboard. Serial ATA Connector: ( SATA1 ~ 2 for 870-SG45, SATA1~6 for 870-C43) This connector is a Serial ATA interface port. Each connector can connect to one Serial ATA device. Important Please do not fold the Serial ATA cable into a 90-degree angle. Otherwise, data loss may occur during transmission.

MS-7715 Fan Power Connectors: CPUFAN, SYSFAN1, SYSFAN2 The fan power connectors support system cooling fan with +12V. When connecting the wire to the connectors, always note that the red wire is the positive and should be connected to the +12V; the black wire is Ground and should be connected to GND. If the mainboard has a System Hardware Monitor chipset onboard, you must use a specially designed fan with speed sensor to take advantage of the CPU fan control. CPUFAN SYSFAN1/2

MS-7715 PCIE Slot The PCIE slot supports the PCIE interface expansion card. The PCIE 2.0 x16 slot The PCIE x1 slot PCI Slot The PCI slot supports LAN card, SCSI card, USB card, and other add-on cards that comply with PCI specifications. Important Make sure that you unplug the power supply first. Meanwhile, read the documentation for the expansion card to configure any necessary hardware or software settings for the expansion card, such as jumpers, switches or BIOS configuration. PCI Interrupt Request Routing When adding or removing expansion cards, make the IRQ, acronym of interrupt request line and pronounced I-R-Q, are hardware lines over which devices can send interrupt signals to the microprocessor. The PCI IRQ pins are typically connected to the PCI bus pins as follows: Order Slot PCI 1

Clear CMOS Jumper: JBAT1 There is a CMOS RAM on board with an external battery power supply to preserve the system configuration data. With the CMOS RAM, the system can automatically boot OS every time it is turned on. If you want to clear the system configuration, use the button to clear data. Press the button to clear the data. JBAT1

Clear Data Important You can clear CMOS by shorting 2-3 pin while the system is off. Then return to 1-2 pin position. Avoid clearing the CMOS while the system is on; it will damage the mainboard.

Auto Disable DRAM/PCI Frequency When set to [Enabled], the system will remove (turn off) clocks from empty DRAM/ PCI slots to minimize the electromagnetic interference (EMI). DRAM Voltage (V) This item is used to adjust the voltage of memory. Spread Spectrum When 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.

• 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.
• 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.
• 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. Load Optimized Defaults You can load the default values provided by the mainboard manufacturer for the stable performance.
