2.
Match the pin1 corner marked as the beveled edge
on the CPU with the pin1 corner on the socket.
Insert the CPU into the socket. Do not use force.
3.
Push the locking lever down and hook it under the
latch on the edge of socket.
4.
Apply thermal grease to the top of the CPU.
5.
Install the cooling fan/heatsink unit onto the CPU,
and secure them all onto the socket base.
6.
Plug the CPU fan power cable into the CPU fan
connector (CPUFAN) on the mainboard.
Installing Memory Modules
This mainboard accommodates three 184-pin 2.5V unbuffered
Double Data Rate SDRAM (DDR SDRAM)
Dual Inline
Memory Module (DIMM) sockets, and supports up to 3.0 GB
of
400
MHz DDR SDRAM.
DDR SDRAM is a type of SDRAM that supports data transfers on
both edges of each clock cycle (the rising and falling edges),
effectively doubling the memory chip’s data throughput. DDR
DIMMs can synchronously work with 100 MHz or 133 MHz
memory bus.
DDR SDRAM provides 1.6 GB/s, 2.1 GB/s or 3.2 GB/s data
transfer rate when the bus is 100 MHz, 133 MHz or 200 MHz,
respectively. When activating the Dual Channel Technology, the
bandwidth of memory bus will be doubled to 6.4 GB/s and
Frequency 200 MHz (Channel 1: DIMM1+DIMM3).
