1. Attach the CPU and heatsink using silica gel to ensure full contact.
2. It is suggested to select high-quality, certified fans in order to avoid
damage to the motherboard and CPU due to high temperatures.
3. Never turn on the machine if the CPU fan is not properly installed.
4. Ensure that the DC power supply is turned off before inserting or
removing expansion cards or other peripherals, especially when
you insert or remove a memory module. Failure to switch off the DC
power supply may result in serious damage to your system or
memory module.
Warning:
We cannot guarantee that your system will operate normally while
over-clocked. Normal operation depends on the over-clock capacity of
your device.

Memory
This motherboard includes two, 184-pin, dual in-line memory module (DIMM)
sockets. You can install corresponding PC 3200 (DDR400), PC 2700
(DDR333), or PC 2100 (DDR266) memory modules. You must install at least
one memory module to ensure normal operation. If you install two modules,
they must be the same speed. Mixed memory modules from different manufac-
turers is not recommended.
Installation of DDR Memory
1. There is only one gap in the center of the DIMM socket, and the memory
module can be fixed in one direction only. Unlock a DIMM socket by pressing
the module clips outward.
2. Align the memory module to the DIMM socket and insert the module verti-
cally into the DIMM socket.
3. The plastic clips at both sides of the DIMM socket will lock automatically.
