Brief Introduction
2Intel®Pentium®4 processors
The Pentium 4 processor is designed to deliver performance across applications
and usages where end-users can truly appreciate and experience the
performance. The Pentium 4 processor delivers this world-class performance for
consumer enthusiasts and business professional desktop PC users as well as for
entry-level workstation users.
Intel adds support for Hyper-Threading Technology to the Pentium 4 processor
family. HT Technology allows a single, physical Pentium 4 processor to function
as two logical processor for next generation multi threaded application.
For more information about all the new features the Pentium 4 delivers, check out the
Intel website at http://www.intel.com
2Chipset
This board is designed with Intel®865PE (Springdale-PE) chipset. The Intel®
865PE chipset consists of the Memory Controller Hub (MCH) and the I/O
Controller Hub (ICH5).
2Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP)
The AGP slot on the board is compliant with the new AGP 3.0 specification. This
new specification enhances the functionality of the original AGP specification
by allowing 8X data transfers ( 8 data samples per clock) resulting in maximum
bandwidth of 2.1GB/s. Only 1.5V AGP cards are supported.
2Ultra ATA100
The mainboard provides an Ultra ATA100 Bus Master IDE controller. This
controller supports Ultra ATA100 protocols which are ideal to support demanding
applications such as real-time video, multimedia, and a high performance operating
system. A new IDE cable is required for Ultra ATA100.
2Hardware Monitoring
Hardware monitoring enables you to monitor various aspects of the system
operation and status. This includes CPU temperature, voltage and fan speed in
RPMs.

Introduction
Page 1-3
210/100 LAN
This mainboard is mounted with an ethernet LAN PHY. It allows the mainboard to
connect to a local area network by means of a network hub.
2GbE LAN (For High-end model only)
This mainboard is optionally mounted with a Gigabit ethernet LAN chipset. The
new Gigabit Ethernet LAN allows data transmission at 1,000 megabits per second
(Mbps), which runs 10 times faster than conventional 10/100BASE-T Ethernet
LANs.
2Serial ATA
Support Serial ATA, an evolutionary replacement for Parallel ATA IDE storage
interface .Increases the peak data transfer speed up to 150MB/sec and allows
future enhancements to the computing platform.
2USB2.0
A popular USB standard for plugging in peripherals with up to 480Mbps transfer
speed while maintaining backward compatibility with older USB1.1 device.
26ch
Delivers 6 channel audio to bring you the latest in audio realism from DVD
movies and games. Perfect for your home theatre system.

Easy Installation Procedure
The following must be completed before powering on your new system:
3-1. CPU Installation
3-2. Jumper Settings
3-3. System Memory Configuration
3-4. Expansion Slots
3-5. Device Connectors
3-1 CPU Installation
Step 1
Open the socket by raising the actuation
lever.
<Figure 1>
Step 2
Align pin 1 on the CPU with pin 1 on
the CPU socket as shown in the
illustration above. The CPU is keyed to
prevent incorrect insertion. Don’t force
the processor into the socket. If it does
not go in easily, check for mis-orienta-
tion and reinsert the CPU.
Make sure the processor is fully
inserted into the socket.
<Figure 2>
Pin 1

Installation
Page 3-4
<Figure 3>
Step 4
Apply thermal compound to the top of
the CPU and install the heatsink as
shown.
Step 5
Install the cooling fan assembly. Press
the two clips in the direction of the
arrows shown in Figure 5 to secure the
assembly to the CPU socket.
Step 6
Plug the CPU fan power into the
mainboard’s CPU fan connector.
The installation is complete.
<Figure 4>
<Figure 5> <Figure 6>
NOTES:
• Installing with incorrect CPU fan and heatsink assemblies may damage
the Intel Pentium®CPU. Use Intel’s design thermal solution shown in the
illustrations above: an active heatsink; an extruded aluminum heatsink
base; and a fan attached to the top of the fin array.
• Apply heatsink thermal compound or paste to the CPU to avoid CPU
overheating and damage.
• In accordance with Intel guidelines specifications, do not install a CPU
over 50 times to avoid bending the pins and damaging the CPU.
Step 3
Close the socket by lowering and
locking the actuation lever.
