Onboard switches

Onboard switches allow you to fine-tune performance when working on a bare

or open-case system. This is ideal for overclockers and gamers who continually

change settings to enhance system performance.
1. Clear CMOS switch

Press the clear CMOS switch to clear setup information when the system

hangs due to overclocking.

To prevent accidental pressing of the Clear CMOS switch, the CLRTC jumper

default setting disables the switch. See page 2-21 for details.

11. Thermal sensor cable connectors (2-pin OPT_TEMP1/2/3)

These connectors are for temperature monitoring. Connect the thermal

sensor cables to these connectors and place the other ends to the devices,

which you want to monitor temperature. The optional fan1~3 can work with

the temperature sensors for a better cooling effect.
