Motherboard information
2.1 Before you proceed
Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components
or change any motherboard settings.
CAUTION!
• Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any
component.
• Before handling components, use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely
grounded object or a metal object, such as the power supply case, to avoid
damaging them due to static electricity.
• Hold components by the edges to avoid touching the ICs on them.
• Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded antistatic
pad or in the bag that came with the component.
• Before you install or remove any component, always remove the AC power
by unplugging the power cord from the power outlet. Failure to do so may
cause severe damage to the motherboard, peripherals, or components.

Chapter 2: Motherboard information
2.4 System memory
This motherboard comes with two Double Data Rate 4 Low Voltage (DDR4L) Small
Outline Dual Inline Memory Module (SO-DIMM) sockets. The gure illustrates the
location of the DDR4L DIMM socket:
Channel Sockets
Channel A DIMM_A1
Channel B DIMM_B1
SO-DIMM_A1 SO-DIMM_B1
IMPORTANT!
• You may install varying memory sizes in Channel A and Channel B. The
system maps the total size of the lower-sized channel for the dual-channel
conguration. Any excess memory from the higher-sized channel is then
mapped for single-channel operation.
• Always install the DIMMS with the same CAS Latency. For an optimum
compatibility, we recommend that you install memory modules of the same
version or data code (D/C) from the same vendor. Check with the vendor to
get the correct memory modules.
• According to Intel®CPU spec, DIMM voltage below 1.35V is recommended
to protect the CPU.
NOTE: Visit the ASUS website at www.asus.com for the latest QVL.

2.5 Jumpers
1. Clear RTC RAM (2-pin CLRTC)
This header allows you to clear the CMOS RTC RAM data of the system
setup information such as date, time, and system passwords.
To erase the RTC RAM:
1. Turn OFF the computer and unplug the power cord.
2. Use a metal object such as a screwdriver to short the two pins.
3. Plug the power cord and turn ON the computer.
4. Hold down the <Del> key during the boot process and enter BIOS setup
to re-enter data.
NOTE: If the steps above do not help, remove the onboard battery and move
the jumper again to clear the CMOS RTC RAM data. After clearing the CMOS,
reinstall the battery.

4. Chassis intrusion header (4-1 pin_CHASSIS)
This header is for a chassis-mounted intrusion detection sensor or switch. Connect
one end of the chassis intrusion sensor or switch cable to this connector. The
chassis intrusion sensor or switch sends a low-level signal to this connector
when a chassis component is installed. The signal is then generated as a chassis
intrusion event.
