- 2 - WARNING!
English
Computer motherboards and expansion cards contain very delicate Integrated Circuit (IC) chips. To
protect them against damage from static electricity, you should follow some precautions whenever you
work on your computer.
1. Unplug your computer when working on the inside.
2. Use a grounded wrist strap before handling computer components. If you do not have one,
touch both of your hands to a safely grounded object or to a metal object, such as the power
supply case.
3. Hold components by the edges and try not touch the IC chips, leads or connectors, or other
components.
4. Place components on a grounded antistatic pad or on the bag that came with the components
whenever the components are separated from the system.
5. Ensure that theATX power supply is switched off before you plug in or remove the ATX power
connector on the motherboard.
If the motherboard has mounting holes, but they don’t line up with the holes on the base and there
are no slots to attach the spacers, do not become alarmed you can still attach the spacers to the
mounting holes. Just cut the bottom portion of the spacers (the spacer may be a little hard to cut off, so
be careful of your hands). In this way you can still attach the motherboard to the base without worrying
about short circuits. Sometimes you may need to use the plastic springs to isolate the screw from the
motherboard PCB surface, because the circuit wire may be near by the hole. Be careful, don’t let the
screw contact any printed circuit write or parts on the PCB that are near the fixing hole, otherwise it
may damage the board or cause board malfunctioning.
Installing the motherboard to the chassis…

Please set the CPU host frequency in accordance with your processor’s specifications.
We don’t recommend you to set the system bus frequency over the CPU’s specification
because these specific bus frequencies are not the standard specifications for CPU, chipset
and most of the peripherals. Whether your system can run under these specific bus frequen-
cies properly will depend on your hardware configurations, including CPU, Chipsets,
SDRAM, Cards…etc.

English
To set up your computer, you must complete the following steps:
Step 1- Install the Central Processing Unit (CPU)
Step 2- Install memory modules
Step 3- Install expansion cards
Step 4- Connect ribbon cables, cabinet wires and power supply
Step 5- Setup BIOS software
Step 6- Install supporting software tools

Step 1: Install the Central Processing Unit (CPU)
Step1-1 : CPU Installation
Pin1 indicator Pin1 indicator
CPU Top View CPU Bottom View
Socket Actuation Lever
1. Pull up the CPU socket lever and
up to 90-degree angle.
Pin1 indicator
2. Locate Pin 1 in the socket and look
for a (golden) cut edge on the CPU
upper corner. Then insert the CPU
into the socket.
3. Press down the CPU socket lever
and finish CPU installation.


Please make sure the CPU type is supported by the motherboard.


If you do not match the CPU socket Pin 1 and CPU cut edge well, it will cause
improper installation. Please change the insert orientation.

Step1-2 : CPU Heat Sink Installation
1. Hook one end of the cooler bracket
to the CPU socket first.
2. Hook the other end of the cooler
bracket to the CPU socket.


Please use Intel approved cooling fan.


We recommend you to apply the thermal tape to provide better heat
conduction between your CPU and heatsink.
(The CPU cooling fan might stick to the CPU due to the hardening of the
thermal paste. During this condition if you try to remove the cooling fan, you
might pull the processor out of the CPU socket alone with the cooling fan,
and might damage the processor. To avoid this from happening, we suggest
you to either use thermal tape instead of thermal paste, or remove the cooling
fan with extreme caution.)


Make sure the CPU fan power cable is plugged in to the CPU fan connector,
this completes the installation.


Please refer to CPU heat sink user’s manual for more detail installation
procedure.

Step 2: Install memory modules
The motherboard has 3 dual inline memory module (DIMM) sockets. The BIOS will automatically
detects memory type and size. To install the memory module, just push it vertically into the DIMM
socket. The DIMM module can only fit in one direction due to the notch. Memory size can vary
between sockets.
Support Unbuffered DDR DIMM Sizes type:
64 Mbit (2Mx8x4 banks) 64 Mbit (1Mx16x4 banks) 128 Mbit(4Mx8x4 banks)
128 Mbit(2Mx16x4 banks) 256 Mbit(8Mx8x4 banks) 256 Mbit(4Mx16x4 banks)
512 Mbit(16Mx8x4 banks) 512 Mbit(8Mx16x4 banks)
Note:
1. GA-8STXC can only support 4 banks of DDR333.
2. If you mix DDR266 and DDR333 then all modules will run as DDR266.
SS: Single Side, DS: Double Side
