For power-saving sake, it is strongly recommended to enable AMD’s Cool ‘n’
Quiet
TM
technology under Windows system. See APPENDIX on page 40 to
enable AMD’s Cool ‘n’ Quiet

This motherboard supports Untied Overclocking Technology. During
overclocking, FSB enjoys better margin due to fixed PCI/PCIE buses. In
other words, CPU FSB is untied during overclocking, but PCIE and PCI buses
are in the fixed mode so that FSB can operate under a more stable overclocking
environment.
3.
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.
