Overview of Components

⚠

Important

∙

Always unplug the power cord from the power outlet before installing or removing

the CPU.

∙

Please retain the CPU protective cap after installing the processor. MSI will deal

with Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) requests if only the motherboard comes

with the protective cap on the CPU socket.

∙

When installing a CPU, always remember to install a CPU heatsink. A CPU heatsink

is necessary to prevent overheating and maintain system stability.

∙

Confirm that the CPU heatsink has formed a tight seal with the CPU before booting

your system.

∙

Overheating can seriously damage the CPU and motherboard. Always make sure

the cooling fans work properly to protect the CPU from overheating. Be sure to apply

an even layer of thermal paste (or thermal tape) between the CPU and the heatsink to

enhance heat dissipation.

∙

Whenever the CPU is not installed, always protect the CPU socket pins by covering

the socket with the plastic cap.

∙

If you purchased a separate CPU and heatsink/ cooler, Please refer to the

documentation in the heatsink/ cooler package for more details about installation.

∙

This motherboard is designed to support overclocking. Before attempting to

overclock, please make sure that all other system components can tolerate

overclocking. Any attempt to operate beyond product specifications is not

recommended. MSI® does not guarantee the damages or risks caused by inadequate

operation beyond product specifications.

Memory module installation recommendation

⚠

Important

∙

Always insert memory modules in the DIMMA2 slot first.

∙

To ensure system stability for Dual channel mode, memory modules must be of the

same type, number and density.

∙

Some memory modules may operate at a lower frequency than the marked value

when overclocking due to the memory frequency operates dependent on its Serial

Presence Detect (SPD). Go to BIOS and find the DRAM Frequency to set the memory

frequency if you want to operate the memory at the marked or at a higher frequency.

∙

It is recommended to use a more efficient memory cooling system for full DIMMs

installation or overclocking.

∙

The stability and compatibility of installed memory module depend on installed CPU

and devices when overclocking.

∙

Please refer to www.msi.com for more information on compatible memory.

Sound Tracker Tab

The Sound Tracker is an FPS oriented feature that provides a visual indication

localizing the sources of the sounds while in a game. These are represented by

dynamic segments pointing the direction of the sounds: the more opaque they are,

the stronger the sounds are. Thanks to this feature, players are able to pick up an

approaching threat more definitively and easily, thereby being even more dynamic.

The Sound Tracker captures the 5.1 and 7.1 sound streams processed by your audio

system, and is displayed in the applications and games using DirectX 9, 9c, 10 and 11.

RAID Configuration

The introduction of RAID levels and types are as below:

RAID 0 breaks the data into blocks which are written to separate hard drives.

Spreading the hard drive I/O load across independent channels greatly

improves I/O performance.

RAID 1 provides data redundancy by mirroring data between the hard drives and

provides enhanced read performance.

RAID 5 provides data striping at the byte level and also stripe error correction

information. This results in excellent performance and good fault tolerance.

RAID 10 uses four hard drives to create a combination of RAID 0 and 1 by forming a

RAID 0 array from two RAID 1 arrays.
