WARNING
Please realize that there is a certain risk involved with overclocking, including
adjusting the setting in the BIOS, applying Untied Overclocking Technology, or using
third-party overclocking tools. Overclocking may affect your system’s stability, or
even cause damage to the components and devices of your system. It should be
done at your own risk and expense. We are not responsible for possible damage
caused by overclocking.
CAUTION!
1. About the setting of “Hyper Threading Technology”, please check page

you implement Quad Channel Memory Technology, make sure to read
the installation guide of memory modules on page 18 for proper installa-
tion.

less than 4GB for the reservation for system usage under Windows ® 7 /
Vista TM / 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

user-friendly interface, which currently includes Hardware Monitor, Fan
Control, Overclocking, OC DNA, Mouse Polling and IES. In the Hardware
Monitor mode, F-Stream shows the major readings of your system. In
Fan Control mode, F-Stream shows the fan speed and temperature for
you to adjust. In Overclocking Control mode, F-Stream allows you to
overclock the CPU frequency for optimal system performance. In OC
DNA mode, you can save your OC settings as a profile and share them
with your friends. Your friends can then load the OC profile in to their own
system to get the same OC settings. In Mouse Polling mode, F-Stream
allows you to adjust the mouse polling rate of the Fatal1ty Mouse port to
add a professional level mouse configuration. In IES (Intelligent Energy
Saver) mode, the voltage regulator can reduce the number of output
phases to improve efficiency when the CPU cores are idle without sacri-
ficing computing performance.
