WARNING

Please realize that there is a certain risk involved with overclocking, including adjusting the

setting in the BIOS, applying Untied Overclocking Technology, or using the third-party over-

clocking tools. Overclocking may affect your system stability, or even cause damage to the

components and devices of your system. It should be done at your own risk and expense.

We are not responsible for possible damage caused by overclocking.

CAUTION!

1. This motherboard supports Dual Channel Memory Technology. Before

you implement Dual Channel Memory Technology, make sure to read the

installation guide of memory modules on page 16 for proper installation.

2. Whether 2400/1866/1600MHz memory speed is supported depends on

the CPU you adopt. If you want to adopt DDR3 2400/1866/1600 memory

module on this motherboard, please refer to the memory support list on

our website for the compatible memory modules.

ASRock website http://www.asrock.com

3. Due to the operating system limitation, the actual memory size may be

less than 4GB for the reservation for system usage under Windows®7 /

VistaTM / XP. For Windows®64-bit OS with 64-bit CPU, there is no such

limitation. You can use ASRock XFast RAM to utilize the memory that

Windows®cannot use.

4. The maximum shared memory size is deﬁned by the chipset vendor and

is subject to change. Please check AMD website for the latest informa-

tion.

5. ASRock Extreme Tuning Utility (AXTU) is an all-in-one tool to ne-tune

different system functions in a user-friendly interface, which is including

Hardware Monitor, Fan Control, Overclocking, OC DNA and IES. In Hard-

ware Monitor, it shows the major readings of your system. In Fan Control,

it shows the fan speed and temperature for you to adjust. In Overclock-

ing, you are allowed to overclock CPU frequency for optimal system

performance. In 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. In IES (Intelligent Energy

Saver), the voltage regulator can reduce the number of output phases to

improve efﬁciency when the CPU cores are idle without sacriﬁcing com-

puting performance. Please visit our website for the operation procedures

of ASRock Extreme Tuning Utility (AXTU).

ASRock website: http://www.asrock.com

6. ASRock Instant Flash is a BIOS ﬂash utility embedded in Flash ROM.

This convenient BIOS update tool allows you to update system BIOS

without entering operating systems ﬁrst like MS-DOS or Windows®. With

this utility, you can press <F6> key during the POST or press <F2> key to

BIOS setup menu to access ASRock Instant Flash. Just launch this tool

and save the new BIOS ﬁle to your USB ﬂash drive, ﬂoppy disk or hard

drive, then you can update your BIOS only in a few clicks without prepar-

ing an additional ﬂoppy diskette or other complicated ﬂash utility. Please

be noted that the USB ﬂash drive or hard drive must use FAT32/16/12 ﬁle

system.

7. If you desire a faster, less restricted way of charging your Apple devices,

such as iPhone/iPod/iPad Touch, ASRock has prepared a wonderful so-

lution for you - ASRock APP Charger. Simply installing the APP Charger

driver, it makes your iPhone charged much quickly from your computer

and up to 40% faster than before. ASRock APP Charger allows you to

quickly charge many Apple devices simultaneously and even supports

continuous charging when your PC enters into Standby mode (S1), Sus-

pend to RAM (S3), hibernation mode (S4) or power off (S5). With APP

Charger driver installed, you can easily enjoy the marvelous charging

experience than ever.

ASRock website: http://www.asrock.com/Feature/AppCharger/index.asp

8. SmartView, a new function of internet browser, is the smart start page

for IE that combines your most visited web sites, your history, your Face-

book friends and your real-time newsfeed into an enhanced view for a

more personal Internet experience. ASRock motherboards are exclu-

sively equipped with the SmartView utility that helps you keep in touch

with friends on-the-go. To use SmartView feature, please make sure your

OS version is Windows®7 / 7 64 bit / VistaTM / VistaTM 64 bit, and your

browser version is IE8.

ASRock website: http://www.asrock.com/Feature/SmartView/index.asp

9. ASRock XFast USB can boost USB storage device performance. The

performance may depend on the property of the device.

10. ASRock XFast LAN provides a faster internet access, which includes

below benefits. LAN Application Prioritization: You can configure your

application priority ideally and/or add new programs. Lower Latency in

Game: After setting online game priority higher, it can lower the latency in

game. Trafﬁc Shaping: You can watch Youtube HD video and download

ﬁles simultaneously. Real-Time Analysis of Your Data: With the status

window, you can easily recognize which data streams you are currently

transferring.

11. ASRock XFast RAM is a new function that is included into ASRock Ex-

treme Tuning Utility (AXTU). It fully utilizes the memory space that cannot

be used under Windows®OS 32-bit CPU. ASRock XFast RAM shortens

the loading time of previously visited websites, making web surﬁng faster

than ever. And it also boosts the speed of Adobe Photoshop 5 times

faster. Another advantage ofASRock XFast RAM is that it reduces the

frequency of accessing your SSDs or HDDs in order to extend their lifes-

pan.

12. 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 sys-

tem.
