Celeron mobile processors which are built on 32 nm technologies to provide smart performance and
responsiveness on executing tasks, It combines the CPU and GPU to offer fantastic HD media and graphics,
especially on 3D gaming experience. Doubles the bandwidth of your system memory up to 21GB/s and pumps
up the system performance at lower power.
DMI (Direct Media Interface) architecture connects between the processor and chipset at 5.0GT/s which twice
the speed of previous version. The exceptionally increased interconnect bit rate from 2.5GT/s up to 5.0GT/s
would effectively eliminates the bottle neck of the system performance and brings the most terrific computing
experience from the present to the future.
There are 2 of 5 SATA ports running at speed up to 6.0Gb/s, and each port can connect with any other SATA
3.0Gb/s and 1.5Gb/s devices for backward compatibility. It supports RAID 0(Striped disk array), RAID
1(Mirroring disk array), RAID 5(Block Interleaved Distributed Parity), RAID 10 (A Stripe of Mirrors).

1.2 Before you Proceed
Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components or change any motherboard
settings.
Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any component.
Use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded object or a metal object, such
as the power supply case, before handling components 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 anti-static pad or in
the bag that came with the component.
Before you install or remove any component, ensure that the ATX power supply is
switched off or the power cord is detached from the power supply. Failure to do so
may cause severe damage to the motherboard, peripherals, and/or components.
1.3 Motherboard Overview
Before you install the motherboard, study the configuration of your chassis to ensure that the motherboard fits
into it. Refer to the chassis documentation before installing the motherboard.
Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the motherboard.
Failure to do so can cause you physical injury and damage motherboard components.
1.3.1 Placement Direction
When installing the motherboard, make sure that you place it into the chassis in the correct orientation. The
edge with external ports goes to the rear part of the chassis as indicated in the image below.

1.3.2 Screw Holes
Place four (4) screws into the holes indicated by circles to secure the motherboard to the chassis.
Do not over tighten the screws! Doing so can damage the motherboard.
Place this side towards the rear of the chassis.

1.4 Central Processing Unit (CPU)
The motherboard comes with a surface mount LGA1155 socket designed for the Intel® Core™ i7/ i5/ i3
processor in the 1155-land package.

MANO860 User’s Manual
14 BIOS Setup
Your boxed Intel® Core™ i7/ i5/ i3 Mobile processor package should come with
installation instructions for the CPU, fan and heatsink assembly. If the
instructions in this section do not match the CPU documentation, follow the
latter.
Upon purchase of the motherboard, make sure that the PnP cap is on the socket
and the socket pins are not bent. Contact your retailer immediately if the PnP
cap is missing, or if you see
any damage to the PnP cap/socket
pins/motherboard components. Axiomtek will shoulder the cost of repair only if
the damage is shipment/transit-related.
Keep the cap after installing the motherboard. Axiomtek will process Return
Merchandise Authorization (RMA) requests only if the motherboard comes with
the cap on the FCPGA988 socket.
The product warranty does not cover damage to the socket pins resulting from
incorrect CPU installation/removal, or misplacement/loss/incorrect removal of
the PnP cap.
Install the CPU fan and heatsink assembly before you install motherboard to the
chassis.
If you purchased a separate CPU heatsink and fan assembly, make sure that you
have properly applied Thermal Interface Material to the CPU heatsink or CPU before
you install the heatsink and fan assembly.
1.4.1 Installing the CPU
1. Locate the CPU socket on the motherboard.
