 Always unplug the power cord from the power outlet before installing or removing
the CPU.
 Please retain the CPU protective cap after installing the processor. MSI will deal
with Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) requests if only the motherboard
comes with the protective cap on the CPU socket.
 When installing a CPU, always remember to install a CPU heatsink. A CPU heatsink
is necessary to prevent overheating and maintain system stability.

 Overheating can seriously damage the CPU and motherboard. Always make sure
the cooling fans work properly to protect the CPU from overheating. Be sure to apply
an even layer of thermal paste (or thermal tape) between the CPU and the heatsink to
enhance heat dissipation.
 Whenever the CPU is not installed, always protect the CPU socket pins by covering
the socket with the plastic cap.
 If you purchased a separate CPU and heatsink/ cooler, Please refer to the docu-
mentation in the heatsink/ cooler package for more details about installation.

MSI UEFI BIOS is compatible with UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface)
architecture. UEFI has many new functions and advantages that traditional BIOS
cannot achieve, and it will completely replace BIOS in the future. The MSI UEFI
BIOS uses UEFI as the default boot mode to take full advantage of the new chipset’s
capabilities.

Fast booting - UEFI can directly boot the operating system and save the BIOS self-

Supports for hard drive partitions larger than 2 TB.
Supports more than 4 primary partitions with a GUID Partition Table (GPT).
Supports unlimited number of partitions.
Supports full capabilities of new devices - new devices may not provide backward
compatibility.
Supports secure startup - UEFI can check the validity of the operating system to
ensure that no malware tampers with the startup process.
