Chapter 2 Central Processing Unit: CPU ® ® The mainboard supports Intel Pentium 4 processor in the 478 pin package. The mainboard uses a CPU socket called PGA478 for easy CPU installation. When you are installing the CPU, make sure the CPU has a heat sink and a cooling fan attached on the top to prevent overheating. If you do not find the heat sink and cooling fan, contact your dealer to purchase and install them before turning on the computer. CPU Installation Procedures Open Lever 1. Pull the

Hardware Setup Memory The mainboard provides 2 slots for 184-pin, 2.5V unbuffered DDR DIMM with 4 memory banks. You can install PC1600/PC2100 DDR/PC2700 SDRAM modules on the DDR DIMM slots (DDR 1~2). To operate properly, at least one DIMM module must be installed. DDR DIMM Slots Introduction to DDR SDRAM DDR (Double Data Rate) SDRAM is similar to conventional SDRAM, but doubles the rate by transferring data twice per cycle. It uses 2.5 volts as op- posed to 3.3 volts used in SDR SDRAM, and requi

Chapter 2 DDR Module Combination You can install either single-sided or double-sided 184-pin DDR DIMM modules into DDR DIMM slots to meet your needs. Different from the SDR DIMM, the DDR DIMM has only one notch on the center of module. The number of pins on either side of the breaks are different. The module will only fit in the right orientation. You can install memory modules in any combination as follows: Slot Momory Module Total Memory Slot 1 64MB, 128MB, 256MB, 64MB~1GB (Bank 0 & 1) 512M
