OC DNA, an exclusive utility developed by ASRock, provides a conve-
nient way for the user to record the OC settings and share with others. It
helps you to save your overclocking record under the operating system
and simplifies the complicated recording process of overclocking settings.
With OC DNA, you can save your OC settings as a profile and share with
your friends! Your friends then can load the OC profile to their own system
to get the same OC settings as yours! Please be noticed that the OC
profile can only be shared and worked on the same motherboard.

to perform over-clocking. Frequencies other than the recommended CPU
bus frequencies may cause the instability of the system or damage the
CPU.
13. While CPU overheat is detected, the system will automatically shutdown.
Before you resume the system, please check if the CPU fan on the
motherboard functions properly and unplug the power cord, then plug it
back again. To improve heat dissipation, remember to spray thermal
grease between the CPU and the heatsink when you install the PC system.
14. EuP, stands for Energy Using Product, was a provision regulated by European
Union to define the power consumption for the completed system. According
to EuP, the total AC power of the completed system shall be under 1.00W in
off mode condition. To meet EuP standard, an EuP ready motherboard and an
EuP ready power supply are required. According to Intel’s suggestion, the EuP
ready power supply must meet the standard of 5v standby power efficiency
is higher than 50% under 100 mA current consumption. For EuP ready power
supply selection, we recommend you checking with the power supply manu-
facturer for more details.
