1.1 Before you Proceed
Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components or
change any motherboard settings.
Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any
component.
Use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded object or
a metal object, such as the power supply case, before handling
components to avoid damaging them due to static electricity
Hold components by the edges to avoid touching the ICs on
them.
Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded
anti-static pad or in the bag that came with the component.
Before you install or remove any component, ensure that the
ATX power supply is switched off or the power cord is detached
from the power supply. Failure to do so may cause severe
damage to the motherboard, peripherals, and/or components.
1.2 Motherboard Overview
Before you install the motherboard, study the configuration of your chassis to ensure that the
motherboard fits into it. Refer to the chassis documentation before installing the
motherboard.
Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the
motherboard. Failure to do so can cause you physical injury and
damage motherboard components.
1.2.1 Placement Direction

orientation. The edge with external ports goes to the rear part of the chassis as indicated in
