CAUTION!
1. Please check the table below for the CPU FSB frequency and its
corresponding memory support frequency.
CPU FSB Frequency Memory Support Frequency
1333 DDR3 800, DDR3 1066, DDR3 1333
1066 DDR3 800, DDR3 1066
800 DDR3 800
533 DDR3 800
* DDR3 1333 memory modules will operate in overclocking mode.
* When you use a FSB533-CPU on this motherboard, it will run at
DDR3 533 if you adopt a DDR3 800 memory module.
* If you adopt FSB1333-CPU and DDR3 1333 memory module on this
motherboard, you need to adjust the jumper. Please refer to page 11
for proper jumper settings.
2. Due to the operating system limitation, the actual memory size may be
less than 4GB for the reservation for system usage under Windows®7 /
VistaTM / XP. For Windows®OS with 64-bit CPU, there is no such limitation.
3. It is a user-friendly ASRock overclocking tool which allows you to surveil
your system by hardware monitor function and overclock your hardware
devices to get the best system performance under Windows®
environment. Please visit our website for the operation procedures of
ASRock OC Tuner. ASRock website: http://www.asrock.com
4. Featuring an advanced proprietary hardware and software design,
Intelligent Energy Saver is a revolutionary technology that delivers
unparalleled power savings. In other words, it is able to provide excep-
tional power saving and improve power efficiency without sacrificing
computing performance. Please visit our website for the operation pro-
cedures of Intelligent Energy Saver.
ASRock website: http://www.asrock.com
WARNING
Please realize that there is a certain risk involved with overclocking, including adjusting
the setting in the BIOS, applying Untied Overclocking Technology, or using the third-
party overclocking tools. Overclocking may affect your system stability, or even
cause damage to the components and devices of your system. It should be done at
your own risk and expense. We are not responsible for possible damage caused by
overclocking.

5. ASRock Instant Flash is a BIOS flash utility embedded in Flash ROM.
This convenient BIOS update tool allows you to update system BIOS
without entering operating systems first like MS-DOS or Windows®. With
this utility, you can press <F6> key during the POST or press <F2> key to
BIOS setup menu to access ASRock Instant Flash. Just launch this tool
and save the new BIOS file to your USB flash drive, floppy disk or hard
drive, then you can update your BIOS only in a few clicks without prepar-
ing an additional floppy diskette or other complicated flash utility. Please
be noted that the USB flash drive or hard drive must use FAT32/16/12 file
system.
6. The software name itself – OC DNA literally tells you what it is capable
of. OC DNA, an exclusive utility developed by ASRock, provides a conve-
nient way for the user to record the OC settings and share with others. It
helps you to save your overclocking record under the operating system
and simplifies the complicated recording process of overclocking settings.
With OC DNA, you can save your OC settings as a profile and share with
your friends! Your friends then can load the OC profile to their own system
to get the same OC settings as yours! Please be noticed that the OC
profile can only be shared and worked on the same motherboard.
7. If you desire a faster, less restricted way of charging your Apple devices,
such as iPhone/iPod/iPad Touch, ASRock has prepared a wonderful
solution for you - ASRock APP Charger. Simply installing the APP Charger
driver, it makes your iPhone charged much quickly from your computer
and up to 40% faster than before. ASRock APP Charger allows you to
quickly charge many Apple devices simultaneously and even supports
continuous charging when your PC enters into Standby mode (S1),
Suspend to RAM (S3), hibernation mode (S4) or power off (S5). With
APP Charger driver installed, you can easily enjoy the marvelous charg-
ing experience than ever.
ASRock website: http://www.asrock.com/Feature/AppCharger/index.asp
8. Although this motherboard offers stepless control, it is not recom-
mended to perform over-clocking. Frequencies other than the recom-
mended CPU bus frequencies may cause the instability of the system
or damage the CPU.
9. While CPU overheat is detected, the system will automatically shutdown.
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.

1.3 Jumpers Setup
The illustration shows how jumpers are
setup. When the jumper cap is placed on
pins, the jumper is “Short”. If no jumper cap
is placed on pins, the jumper is “Open”. The
illustration shows a 3-pin jumper whose pin1
and pin2 are “Short” when jumper cap is
placed on these 2 pins.
Jumper Setting Description
PS2_USB_PWR1 Short pin2, pin3 to enable
(see p.2 No. 1) +5VSB (standby) for PS/2
or USB wake up events.
Note: To select +5VSB, it requires 2 Amp and higher standby current provided by
power supply.
Clear CMOS
(CLRCMOS1, 2-pin jumper)
(see p.2 No. 18)
Note: CLRCMOS1 allows you to clear the data in CMOS. The data in CMOS includes
system setup information such as system password, date, time, and system
setup parameters. To clear and reset the system parameters to default setup,
please turn off the computer and unplug the power cord from the power
supply. After waiting for 15 seconds, use a jumper cap to short 2 pins on
CLRCMOS1 for 5 seconds.
2-pin jumper
Short Open
EUP LAN / EUP Audio Jumper
(EUP_LAN1, 3-pin jumper, see p.2 No. 23)
(EUP_AUDIO1, 3-pin jumper, see p.2 No. 22)
Note: EUP_LAN and EUP_AUDIO jumper design decreases the power consumption
of this motherboard to meet EuP standard. With an ASRock EuP ready
motherboard and a power supply that the 5VSB power efficiency is higher
than 50% under 100mA current consumption, your system is able to submit
EuP standard. The default setting (short pin1 and pin2) is EuP enabled. If you
want to disable this power saving function, you may short pin2 and pin3.
Please be noticed that when EUP_LAN jumper is set to enabled, the
Wake-On-LAN function under S3 (Suspend to RAM), S4 (Suspend to Disk),
and S5 (Soft Off) will be disabled.
