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 SSI EEB 3.5 compliant chassis.

Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the

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

to the motherboard components.

2.2.1 Placement direction

When installing the motherboard, make sure 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.

Place this side towards

the rear of the chassis

Do not overtighten the screws! Doing so can damage the motherboard.
