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 overclocking 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 Untied Overclocking Technology. Please read “Un-

tied Overclocking Technology” on page 20 for details.

2. This motherboard supportsDual Channel Memory Technology. Before you

implement Dual Channel Memory Technology, make sure to read the

installation guide of memory modules on page 11 for proper installation.

3. Whether 1066MHz memory speed is supported depends on the AM2+ CPU

you adopt. If you want to adopt DDR2 1066 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

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

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

and Windows®VistaTM. For Windows®XP 64-bit and Windows®VistaTM 64-

bit with 64-bit CPU, there is no such limitation.

5. Before installing SATAII hard disk to SATAII connector, please read the “SATAII

Hard Disk Setup Guide” on page 22 of “User Manual” in the support CD to

adjust your SATAII hard disk drive to SATAII mode. You can also connect SATA

hard disk to SATAII connector directly.

6. Power Management for USB 2.0 works fine under Microsoft®Windows®

VistaTM 64-bit / VistaTM / XP 64-bit / XP SP1 or SP2.

7. It is a user-friendly ASRock overclocking tool which allows you to surveil

your system by hardware monitor function and overclock your hardware

devices to get the best system performance under Windows® environment.

Please visit our website for the operation procedures of ASRock OC

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

8. Featuring an advanced proprietary hardware and software design,

Intelligent Energy Saver is a revolutionary technology that delivers

unparalleled power savings. The voltage regulator can reduce the

number of output phases to improve efficiency when the CPU cores are

idle. In other words, it is able to provide exceptional power saving and

improve power efficiency without sacrificing computing performance. To

use Intelligent Energy Saver function, please enable Cool ‘n’ Quiet option

in the BIOS setup in advance. Please visit our website for the operation

procedures of Intelligent Energy Saver.

9. 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.

10. Although this motherboard offers stepless control, it is not recommended

to perform over-clocking. Frequencies other than the recommended CPU

bus frequencies may cause the instability of the system or damage the

CPU.

11. 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.

12. This motherboard supports ASRock AM2 Boost overclocking technology. If

you enable this function in the BIOS setup, the memory performance will

improve up to 12.5%, but the effect still depends on the AM2 CPU you adopt.

Enabling this function will overclock the chipset/CPU reference clock. However,

we can not guarantee the system stability for all CPU/DRAM configurations.

If your system is unstable after AM2 Boost function is enabled, it may not be

applicative to your system. You may choose to disable this function for

keeping the stability of your system.

InstallationInstallation

Installation

This is an ATX form factor (12.0-in x 7.8-in, 30.5 cm x 19.8 cm) motherboard.

Before you install the motherboard, study the configuration of your chassis to ensure

that the motherboard fits into it.

Pre-installation PrecautionsPre-installation Precautions

Pre-installation Precautions

Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard

components or change any motherboard settings.

Before you install or remove any component, ensure that the

power is switched off or the power cord is detached from the

power supply. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to the

motherboard, peripherals, and/or components.

1. Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any

component.

2. To avoid damaging the motherboard components due to static

electricity, NEVER place your motherboard directly on the carpet or

the like. Also remember to use a grounded wrist strap or touch a

safety grounded object before you handle components.

3. Hold components by the edges and do not touch the ICs.

4. Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded anti-

static pad or in the bag that comes with the component.

5. When placing screws into the screw holes to secure the motherboard

to the chassis, please do not over-tighten the screws! Doing so may

damage the motherboard.

CPU Installation

Step 1. Unlock the socket by lifting the lever up to a 90oangle.

Step 2. Position the CPU directly above the socket such that the CPU corner with

the golden triangle matches the socket corner with a small triangle.

Step 3. Carefully insert the CPU into the socket until it fits in place.

The CPU fits only in one correct orientation. DO NOT force the CPU

into the socket to avoid bending of the pins.

Step 4. When the CPU is in place, press it firmly on the socket while you push

down the socket lever to secure the CPU. The lever clicks on the side tab

to indicate that it is locked.

Installation of CPU Fan and HeatsinkInstallation of CPU Fan and Heatsink

Installation of CPU Fan and Heatsink

After you install the CPU into this motherboard, it is necessary to install a

larger heatsink and cooling fan to dissipate heat. You also need to spray

thermal grease between the CPU and the heatsink to improve heat

dissipation. Make sure that the CPU and the heatsink are securely fas-

tened and in good contact with each other. Then connect the CPU fan to

the CPU FAN connector (CPU_FAN1, see Page 2, No. 31). For proper

installation, please kindly refer to the instruction manuals of the CPU fan

and the heatsink.
