1. To achieve better airflow rates and heat dissipation, we suggest that
you use a high quality fan with 3800 rpm at least. CPU fan and
heatsink installation procedures may vary with the type of CPU fan/
heatsink supplied. The form and size of fan/heatsink may also vary.
2. DO NOT remove the CPU cap from the socket before installing a
CPU.
3. Return Material Authorization (RMA) requests will be accepted
only if the motherboard comes with the cap on the LGA1366 socket.
Due to Intel CPU spec definition, the system will not boot if only one
DIMM is installed in DDR3_1, DDR3_3, or DDR3_5. Follow the table
above for recommended memory configuration.
