USER MANUAL GAB85MDS3H GIGABYTE

Installing a CPU and CPU Cooler

A. Installing an Intel CPU (skip this step if the motherboard has a built-in CPU)

• The sequence of installation may differ depending on the type of case and devices used. The

installation instructions below apply to GIGABYTE's desktop systems and are for reference

• Refer to the user's manual included for detailed motherboard specications.

• Before installing the devices, make sure they are compliant with the connectors on your computer.

• Before installing the devices, be sure to turn off the devices and your computer. Unplug the power cord

from the power outlet to prevent damage to the devices and the system components.

• Place the computer system on a stable surface to prevent improper installation resulted from shaking.

Push lever A (closest to the " " marking) down and away from the socket to release it. Then push

lever B (closest to the " " marking) down and away from the socket and lift it. Gently press lever A to

allow the load plate to rise. Open the load plate.

A-1 RefertothefollowinginstructionsbasedonyourCPUspecications:

Lift the CPU socket lever and the metal load plate will be lifted as well.

a. If the protective socket cover is fastened on the CPU socket, remove

b. If the protective socket cover is fastened on the metal load plate, do

not remove it at this stage. The socket cover may pop off from the

load plate automatically during the process of re-engaging the lever

after you insert the CPU.

For detailed instructions on installing the CPU, please refer to the user’s manual.

Lever A Lever B A-2 HoldtheCPUwithyourthumbandindexngers.AligntheCPUpinonemarking(triangle)withthepin

one corner of the CPU socket (or you may align the CPU notches with the socket alignment keys) and

gently insert the CPU into position.

A-3 Once the CPU is properly inserted, replace the load plate and push the CPU socket lever back into its locked position.

Once the type B is properly inserted, carefully replace the load plate. Then secure lever B under its retention

tab. The socket cover may pop off from the load plate during the process of engaging the lever. Finally,

secure lever A under its retention tab to complete the installation of the CPU.- 2 -

C-1 BeforeinstallingtheCPUcooler,pleaserstaddathinlayerof

heat sink paste on the surface of the CPU. Then install the cooler

(refer to the installation manual for your CPU cooler).

C-2 Connect the CPU cooler cable to the CPU_FAN connector located

on the motherboard so that the cooler can properly function to

prevent the CPU from overheating.

C. Installing the CPU Cooler

B. Installing an AMD CPU (skip this step if the motherboard has a built-in CPU)

Note the orientation of the memory module. Spread the retaining clips at both ends

of the memory socket. Place the memory module on the socket. As indicated in the

pictureontheleft,placeyourngersonthetopedgeofthememory,pushdownon

the memory and insert it vertically into the memory socket. The clips at both ends

of the socket will snap into place when the memory module is securely inserted.

Preparing the Case and Installing a Power Supply

UsingtheGIGABYTEdesktopsystemasthedemonstrationexample,pleaserst

remove both sides and the lid of the case in order to install the power supply.

Place the power supply in the correct place in the case and secure it with screws.

Installation and placement of the power supply may differ depending on the type

To ensure sufcient power can be supplied to your system, it is

recommended that a power supply of good quality be used. If a power

supply is used that does not provide the required power, the result can

lead to an unstable or unbootable system.

• Do not force the CPU into the CPU socket. The CPU cannot t in if oriented incorrectly. Adjust the CPU

orientation if this occurs.

• DO NOT touch socket contacts. To protect the CPU socket, always replace the protective socket cover

when the CPU is not installed.

B-1 Completely raise the CPU socket lever. Align the CPU pin

one (small triangle marking) with the triangle marking on the

CPU socket and gently insert the CPU into the socket. Make

surethattheCPUpinstperfectlyintotheirholes.

B-2 OncetheCPUispositionedintoitssocket,placeonenger

down on the middle of the CPU, lowering the socket lever

and latching it into the fully locked position.- 3 -

Remove the original I/O shield from the back of the case and replace it with the

motherboard I/O shield. Place the motherboard within the case by positioning it

into its I/O shield. Align the mounting screw holes on the motherboard with their

corresponding mounting holes on the case. Secure the motherboard in place

Locate an expansion slot that supports your card and remove the slot cover from

the case back panel. Then insert the expansion card into the slot. Secure the

expansion card's bracket to the case back panel with a screw.

• Before purchasing an expansion card, check the length of the card, making

sure it can t into your case.

• Make sure that the expansion card is fully seated in its slot.

Installing an Expansion Card

PCI Express Graphics Card

6-1 Install your optical drives, such as DVD-ROM and CD-ROM drives.

Remove the 5.25" drive bay cover from the front of the case. Mount the optical drive

in the 5.25" drive bay and secure it with screws.

6-2 Install your IDE and SATA hard drives.

Install the hard drive into a drive bay within the case and secure it with screws.

• One motherboard IDE connector can connect up to two IDE devices. Prior to installation, check the jumper

settings (master and slave) on your IDE devices.

• If more than one hard drive is installed, enter system BIOS Setup to set the hard drive boot sequence.

Installing an Optical Drive

Installing IDE and SATA Devices- 4 -

7-1 Connect cables to internal connectors and headers on the motherboard, including IDE/SATA

connectors, and front panel audio, USB, IEEE 1394 headers, etc.

7-2 Attach the front panel module (differs depending on the case design, consisting of power

indicator, hard drive activity indicator, speakers, reset switch, power switch, etc.) from the case

to the front panel header (F_PANEL) on the motherboard.
