1�1 Before You Start
Thank you for choosing our product. Before you start installing the motherboard, please make
sure you follow the instrucons below:
• Prepare a dry and stable working environment with sucient lighng.
• Always disconnect the computer from power outlet before operaon.
• Before you take the motherboard out from an-stac bag, ground yourself properly
by touching any safely grounded appliance, or use grounded wrist strap to remove the
stac charge.
• Avoid touching the components on motherboard or the rear side of the board unless
necessary. Hold the board on the edge, do not try to bend or ex the board.
• Do not leave any unfastened small parts inside the case aer installaon. Loose parts
will cause short circuits which may damage the equipment.
• Keep the computer from dangerous area, such as heat source, humid air and water.
• The operang temperatures of the computer should be 0 to 45 degrees Celsius.
• To avoid injury, be careful of:
Sharp pins on headers and connectors
Rough edges and sharp corners on the chassis
Damage to wires that could cause a short circuit

Chapter 3: BIOS Setup
Introducon
The purpose of this manual is to describe the sengs in the AMI UEFI BIOS Setup program on
this motherboard. The Setup program allows users to modify the basic system conguraon
and save these sengs to NVRAM.
UEFI BIOS determines what a computer can do without accessing programs from a disk. This
system controls most of the input and output devices such as keyboard, mouse, serial ports
and disk drives. BIOS acvates at the rst stage of the boong process, loading and execung
the operang system. Some addional features, such as virus and password protecon or
chipset ne-tuning opons are also included in UEFI BIOS.
The rest of this manual will to guide you through the opons and sengs in UEFI BIOS Setup.
Plug and Play Support
This AMI UEFI BIOS supports the Plug and Play Version 1.0A specicaon.
EPA Green PC Support
This AMI UEFI BIOS supports Version 1.03 of the EPA Green PC specicaon.
ACPI Support
AMI ACPI UEFI BIOS support Version 1.0/2.0 of Advanced Conguraon and Power interface
specicaon (ACPI). It provides ASL code for power management and device conguraon
capabilies as dened in the ACPI specicaon, developed by Microso, Intel and Toshiba.
PCI Bus Support
This AMI UEFI BIOS also supports Version 2.3 of the Intel PCI (Peripheral Component
Interconnect) local bus specicaon.
DRAM Support
DDR3 SDRAM (Double Data Rate III Synchronous DRAM) is supported.
Supported CPUs
This AMI UEFI BIOS supports the latest CPU.
Using Setup
When starng up the computer, press <Del> during the Power-On Self-Test (POST) to enter the
UEFI BIOS setup ulity. In the UEFI BIOS setup ulity, you will see General Help descripon at
the top right corner, and this is providing a brief descripon of the selected item. Navigaon
Keys for that parcular menu are at the boom right corner, and you can use these keys to
select item and change the sengs.
Note
»
»The default UEFI BIOS sengs apply for most condions to ensure opmum performance of the
motherboard. If the system becomes unstable aer changing any sengs, please load the default
sengs to ensure system’s compability and stability. Use Load Setup Default under the Exit Menu.
»
»For beer system performance, the UEFI BIOS rmware is being connuously updated. The
UEFI BIOS informaon described in this manual is for your reference only. The actual UEFI BIOS
informaon and sengs on board may be slightly dierent from this manual.
