CAUTION!

1. About the settings of “Hyper Threading Technology”, please check page

53.

2. 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 20 for proper installation.

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®OS with 64-bit CPU, there is no such limita-

tion. You can use ASRock XFast RAM to utilize the memory that Win-

dows®cannot use.

4. Only PCIE2 slot supports Gen 3 speed. To run the PCI Express in Gen

3 speed, please install an Ivy Bridge CPU. If you install a Sandy Bridge

CPU, the PCI Express will run only at PCI Express Gen 2 speed.

5. The maximum shared memory size is dened by the chipset vendor and

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

tion.

6. You can choose to use two of the three monitors only. D-Sub, DVI-D and

HDMI monitors cannot be enabled at the same time. Besides, with the

DVI-to-HDMI adapter, the DVI-D port can support the same features as

the HDMI port.

7. xvYCC and Deep Color are only supported under Windows®7 64-bit /

7. Deep Color mode will be enabled only if the display supports 12bpc

in EDID. HBR is supported under Windows®7 64-bit / 7 / VistaTM 64-bit /

VistaTM.

8. For microphone input, this motherboard supports both stereo and mono

modes. For audio output, this motherboard supports 2-channel, 4-chan-

nel, 6-channel, and 8-channel modes. Please check the table on page 14

for proper connection.

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

ferent system functions in a user-friendly interface, which includes Hard-

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

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

shows the fan speed and temperature for you to adjust. In Overclocking,

you are allowed to overclock CPU frequency for optimal system per-

formance. In OC DNA, you can save your OC settings as a prole and

share it with your friends. Your friends then can load the OC prole 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 efciency when the CPU cores are idle without sacricing com-

puting performance. Please visit our website for the operation procedures

of ASRock Extreme Tuning Utility (AXTU).
