Motherboard overview

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

ensure that the motherboard fits into it.
To optimize the motherboard features, we highly recommend that you install it in an

ATX 2.2 compliant chassis.

2.2.1

Placement direction

When installing the motherboard, ensure that you place it into the chassis in the

correct orientation. The edge with external ports goes to the rear part of the chassis

as indicated in the image below.

2.2.2

Screw holes

Place nine (9) screws into the holes indicated by circles to secure the motherboard

to the chassis.

DO NOT overtighten the screws! Doing so can damage the motherboard.

Unplug the chassis power cord before installing or removing the motherboard.

Failure to do so can cause you physical injury and damage motherboard

components!
