Due to CPU limitations, read the following guidelines before installing the memory in Dual Channel mode.
1. Dual Channel mode cannot be enabled if only one memory module is installed.
2. When enabling Dual Channel mode with two memory modules, it is recommended that memory of
the same capacity, brand, speed, and chips be used.
1-5 Installing an Expansion Card
Read the following guidelines before you begin to install an expansion card:
• Make sure the motherboard supports the expansion card. Carefully read the manual that came
with your expansion card.
• Always turn off the computer and unplug the power cord from the power outlet before installing an
expansion card to prevent hardware damage.
1-6 Back Panel Connectors
DisplayPort In port
The DisplayPort In port offers video outputs to the motherboard. Refer to the pictures below and the
Thunderbolt
™
4 Connector introduction for more information.
Step 1:
Connect your DisplayPort cable or Mini-DisplayPort
cable (purchased separately) from the graphics
card to the DisplayPort In port on the back panel.
Step 2:
Then connect the DisplayPort or Thunderbolt
™
devices to Thunderbolt
™
4 connector j to complete.
• When removing the cable connected to a back panel connector, rst remove the cable from your
device and then remove it from the motherboard.
• When removing the cable, pull it straight out from the connector. Do not rock it side to side to
prevent an electrical short inside the cable connector.

Thunderbolt
™
4 Connector (USB Type-C
®
Port)
The connector supports standard DisplayPort and Thunderbolt
™
video outputs. You can connect a standard
DisplayPort/Thunderbolt
™
monitor to this connector with an adapter. The Thunderbolt
™
connector can
daisy chain up to ve Thunderbolt
™
devices. Because of the limited I/O resources of the PC architecture,
the number of Thunderbolt
™
devices that can be used is dependent on the number of the PCI Express
devices being installed. You can adjust the Thunderbolt
™
settings under Settings\Thunderbolt Conguration
in BIOS Setup. The maximum supported resolution is 5120 x 2880@60 Hz with 24 bpp via single display
output, but the actual resolutions supported are dependent on the monitor being used. Also, the connector
is reversible and supports the USB 3.2 Gen 2 specication and is compatible to the USB 3.2 Gen 1 and
USB 2.0 specication. You can use this port for USB devices, too.
The Thunderbolt
™
4 connector j supports a resolution of up to 4K@60 Hz when a graphics card is
connected to the DisplayPort In port for the Thunderbolt™ 4 connector j to output.
