theleverup toa90-degree
angle.
2.Lookforthedot/cutedge.The

protecttheCPUfromoverheating.
WARNING!
ThemainboardsupportsIntel®Pentium®4processorinthe478 pin

Themainboardprovides 2slotsfor184-pin,2.5VDDRDIMM with4
memorybanks.You caninstall PC1600/PC2100DDRSDRAMmodules on
theDDRDIMMslots(DDR1~2).Tooperateproperly,atleastoneDIMM
modulemustbeinstalled.
Memory
IntroductiontoDDR SDRAM
DDR(DoubleDataRate)SDRAMissimilartoconventionalSDRAM,
butdoubles therateby transferring datatwice percycle.It uses 2.5voltsas
opposedto3.3voltsusedinSDRSDRAM,and requires 184-pinDIMMmod-
ules ratherthan168-pinDIMMmodules usedby SDRSDRAM.Twotypes of
DDRareavailableatthetimeofwriting:PC1600 &PC2100.PC1600 DDR
SDRAMrunning at100MHzwill produce about1.6GB/smemorybandwidth.
PC2100 running at133MHzwill produce 2.1GB/smemorybandwidth.High
memorybandwidthmakes DDRanidealsolution forhigh performance PC,
workstationsand servers.
DDRDIMM Slots
(DDR1~2)
CPU Core Speed DerivationProcedure
If CPUClock =100MHz
Core/Busratio = 14
thenCPUcorespeed = HostClock xCore/Busratio
=100MHzx14
=1.4GHz
Overclocking
Thismotherboardisdesignedtosupportoverclocking.
However,pleasemakesureyourcomponentsareabletotol-
eratesuchabnormalsetting,whiledoing overclocking.Any
attempttooperatebeyond productspecificationsisnot
recommended.Wedo notguarantee thedamagesorrisks
causedbyinadequateoperationorbeyondproduct
specifications.
WARNING!
5. Connect the fan power cable from the mounted fan to the 3-pin fan power connector
on the board.
