Before You Begin A Follow these guidelines before you begin building your system: • Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage components. Perform the procedures described in this guide only at an ESD workstation using an antistatic wrist strap and a conductive foam pad. If such a station is not available, you can provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap and attaching it to a metal part of the computer chassis. • Always follow the steps in each procedure in the listed order. • Set up a log to record information about your computer such as serial numbers, installed options, and BIOS configuration. Installation Precautions When you install the desktop board, observe all warnings and cautions in this guide. To avoid injury, be careful of: • Sharp pins on headers and connectors • Rough edges and sharp corners on the chassis • Damage to wires that could cause a short circuit Observe Safety and Regulatory Requirements Read and follow the instructions in this guide and the instructions supplied with the chassis and associated devices. If you do not follow these instructions and the instructions provided by the chassis and device suppliers, you increase your safety risk and possibility of noncompliance with regional laws and regulations. 1 Install the I/O Shield Install the Desktop Board Place the I/O shield inside the chassis and press it into place so that it fits A. Install Standoffs B. Install the Desktop Board tightly and securely. Use caution so you do not deform the I/O shield. Eight standoffs should be installed into the chassis before installing the desktop board. Locate the threaded standoff Install the desktop board by aligning the back panel with 4-tI I IN • • holes that match the desktop board, and install a standoff at each location indicated by the RED circles. the I/O shield and securing the board to the standoffs using the screws provided t o cn 5l5 Chassis Standoff • NOTE: Some chassis may have one or more standoffs pre-installed. Be sure that only the eight necessary standoffs are installed prior to installing the desktop board. with your chassis. I/O Shield Reference chassis shown, your chassis may differ. • • Front of Chassis irma Install a Processor For a list of processors this board supports, go to: http://processormatch.intel.com. A. Unlatch the Socket Lever Push the lever down and away from the socket to release it. B. Open the Load Plate (;) Rotate the socket lever to lift the load plate away from the socket. O rn Levert Load Plate O LGA1150 Processor Socket C Make sure the load plate is in the fully open position. 00 A When opening the socket DO NOT TOUCH the gold socket contacts. A• When unpacking a processor, hold by the edges only to avoid touching the gold contacts. C. Install the Processor The processor must align correctly with the socket before installation. DO NOT DROP the processor into the socket. ig Hold the processor with your thumb and index finger as shown to align your fingers with the socket cutouts. • Make sure that the processor Pin 1 indicator (gold triangle) is aligned with the Pin 1 chamfer on the socket @ Make sure that the notches on the processor align with the posts on the socket. 0 Lower the processor straight down without tilting or sliding it in the socket. Pin 1 gt, Socket Cutout -/ D. Close the Load Plate and Secure the Socket Lever (;) Carefully lower the load plate and make sure it slides under the shoulder screw cap as the lever is lowered. O Continue to lower the lever and the socket cover will pop off. Socket Cover -\ Socket Cutout @ Latch the socket lever under the load plate tab. O Pick up the socket cover and remove it from the board. NOTE: Save the socket cover and replace it if the processor is removed. 0 Shoulder Screw Cap Load Plate Tab 4 Install a Heatsink NOTE: Heatsinks that come with boxed Inter processors use pre-applied thermal interface material (TIM) and do not need thermal grease. If you install a different heatsink, refer to the manufacturer's instructions. Do not touch or disturb the TIM on the heatsink during installation. Typical heatsink shown, yours may differ. Place the heatsink onto the processor socket. Ensure that the fan power cable is on the side closest to the processor fan header. Align the four fasteners with the Fastener (correct Orientation) - corresponding board holes. Ensure that the fastener slots are pointing perpendicular to the heatsink. Pre-applied TIM (underneath) Incorrect Orientation While pressing down on the heatsink, press down on the top of the fasteners with your thumb to lock into place. Ensure that allfourfasteners are secured. xr„ Connect the heatsink fan power cable to the processor fan header. A Processor Fan Header Install System Memory Suggested Memory Configurations and Population Order NOTE: This desktop board supports 240-pin DDR3 DIMMs only. For a list of tested memory go to: http://www.intel.com/support/go/buildit. DIMM 3 - DIMM 1 -I DIMM 4 - DIMM 2- ( - Channel A Channel B 1ft 0 ELLEBBERRE9 accccu Minimum memory: 1 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 DIMM. Memory should be installed in DIMM number order: • For single-channel operation, populate Slot 1 or Slots 1 and 3. • For dual-channel operation, populate Slot 1 and Slot 2 or Slots 1, 2, 3, and 4. For best performance, DIMM pairs should be identical in size, speed, and organization. Do not touch the gold contacts when handling or installing DIMMs. O Push both socket levers outward to the open position. Position the DIMM above the socket, aligning the small notch at the bottom edge of the DIMM with the key in the socket. O Insert the bottom edge of the DIMM into the socket 0 With even pressure, push down on the top edge of the DIMM until the socket levers snap into place. @ Ensure that both socket levers are in the closed position. Closed Position Socket Lever I LI I Connect Chassis Fans This desktop board has two fan headers for connecting chassis fans. See the details below for connecting either a 3-wire or a 4-wire fan to the desktop board fan headers. NOTE: The pin numbering for the fan connectors is shown for ease of installation.
