ZOTAC nForce 790i-Supreme SLI Motherboard
Installing the Motherboard
The sequence of installing the motherboard into the chassis depends on the chassis
you are using and if you are replacing an existing motherboard or working with an
empty chassis. Determine if it would be easier to make all the connections prior to this
step or to secure the motherboard and then make all the connections. It is normally
easier to secure the motherboard first.
Use the following procedure to install the I/O shield and secure the motherboard into
the chassis.
Note: Be sure that the CPU fan assembly has enough clearance for the
chassis covers to lock into place and for the expansion cards. Also
make sure the CPU Fan assembly is aligned with the vents on the
covers.
Installing the I/O Shield
The motherboard kit comes with an I/O shield that is used to block radio frequency
transmissions, protects internal components from dust and foreign objects, and
promotes correct airflow within the chassis.
Before installing the motherboard, install the I/O shield from the
inside
of the chassis.
Press the I/O shield into place and make sure it fits securely. If the I/O shield does
not fit into the chassis, you would need to obtain the proper size from the chassis
supplier.
Securing the Motherboard into the Chassis
Most computer chassis have a base with mounting studs or spacers to allow the
mother board to be secured to the chassis and help to prevent short circuits.
If there are studs that do not align with a mounting hole on the motherboard, it is
recommended that you remove that stud to prevent the possibility of a short circuit. In
most cases, it is recommended to secure the motherboard using a minimum of nine
(9) spacers.
1. Carefully place the motherboard onto the studs/spacers located inside the
chassis.
2. Align the mounting holes with the studs/spacers.
3. Align the connectors to the I/O shield.
4. Ensure that the fan assembly is aligned with the chassis vents according to the
fan assembly instruction.
5. Secure the motherboard with a minimum of eight-to-ten screws.
