1-3 Installing the APU
Installing the APU
A. Locate the pin one (denoted by a small triangle) of the APU socket and the APU.
Read the following guidelines before you begin to install the APU:
• Make sure that the motherboard supports the APU.
(Go to GIGABYTE's website for the latest APU support list.)
•
Always turn off the computer and unplug the power cord from the power outlet before installing the
APU to prevent hardware damage.
•
Locate the pin one of the APU. The APU cannot be inserted if oriented incorrectly.
• Apply an even and thin layer of thermal grease on the surface of the APU.
• Do not turn on the computer if the APU cooler is not installed, otherwise overheating and damage
of the APU may occur.
•
Set the APU host frequency in accordance with the APU specifications. It is not recommended
that the system bus frequency be set beyond hardware specifications since it does not meet the
standard requirements for the peripherals. If you wish to set the frequency beyond the standard
specifications, please do so according to your hardware specifications including the APU, graphics
card, memory, hard drive, etc.
