WARNING!
Computer motherboards and expansion cards contain very delicate Integrated Circuit (IC) chips. To
protect them against damage from static electricity, you should follow some precautions whenever you
work on your computer.
1. Unplug your computer when working on the inside.
2. Use a grounded wrist strap before handling computer components. If you do not have
one, touch bothof your hands to a safely grounded object or to a metalobject, such as
the power supply case.
3. Hold components by the edges and try not touch the IC chips, leads or connectors, or
other components.
4. Place components on a grounded antistatic pad or on the bag that came with the
components whenever the components are separatedfrom the system.
5. Ensure that the ATX power supply is switched off before you plug in or remove the ATX
power connector on the motherboard.
Installing the motherboard to the chassis…
Ifthe motherboard has mounting holes, but they don’ t line up with the holes on the base and thereare
no slotsto attach the spacers, do not become alarmed you can still attach the spacers to the mounting
holes. Just cut the bottom portion of the spacers (the spacer may be a little hard to cut off, so be careful
of your hands). In this way you can still attach the motherboard to the base without worrying about short
circuits. Sometimes you may need to use the plastic springs to isolate the screw from the motherboard
PCB surface, because the circuitwire may benear by thehole. Be careful, don’ t let the screw contact
any printed circuit write or parts on the PCB that are near the fixing hole, otherwise it may damage the
board or cause board malfunctioning.

Please set the CPU host frequency in accordance with your processor’ s specifications.
We don’t recommend you to set the system bus frequency over the CPU’ s specification
because these specific bus frequencies are not the standard specifications for CPU,
chipset and most of the peripherals. Whether your system can run under these specific
bus frequencies properly will depend on your hardware configurations, including CPU,
Chipsets,SDRAM,Cards….etc.

Please use Intel approved cooling fan.
We recommend you to apply the thermal tape to provide better heat
conduction between your CPU and heatsink.
(The CPU cooling fan might stick to the CPU due to the hardening of the
thermal paste. During this condition if you try to remove the cooling fan, you
might pull the processor out of the CPU socket alone with the cooling fan, and
might damagethe processor. To avoidthis from happening, we suggest you to
either use thermal tape instead of thermal paste, or remove the coolingfan with
extreme caution.)
M
M
Make sure the CPU fan power cable is plugged in to the CPU fan connector,
this completes the installation.
Please refer to CPU heat sink user’ s manual for more detail installation
procedure.

DDR Introduction
Established on the existing SDRAM industry infrastructure,DDR (Double Data Rate)memory is a
high performance and cost-effective solution that allows easy adoption for memory vendors,OEMs and
system integrators.
DDR memory is a sensible evolutionary solution for the PC industry that builds on the existing
SDRAM infrastructure, yet makes awesome advances in solving the system performance bottleneck by
doubling the memory bandwidth. DDR SDRAM will offer a superior solution and migration path from
existing SDRAM designs due to its availability, pricing and overall market support. PC2100 DDR
memory (DDR266) doubles the datarate through reading and writing at both the rising and fallingedge of
the clock, achieving data bandwidth 2X greater than PC133 when running with the same DRAM clock
frequency. With peak bandwidth of 2.1GB per second, DDR memory enables system OEMs to build
high performance and low latency DRAM subsystemsthat are suitable for servers, workstations, high-
end PC's and value desktop SMA systems. With a core voltage of only 2.5 Volts compared to
conventional SDRAM's 3.3 volts, DDR memory is a compelling solution for small form factor desktops
and notebook applications.

Memory
The category is display-only which is determined by POST (Power On Self Test) of the BIOS.
BaseMemory
The POST of the BIOS will determine the amount of base (or conventional) memory
installed inthe system.
The value of the base memory is typically 512 K for systems with 512 K memory
installed on the motherboard, or 640 K for systems with 640 K or more memory
installed on the motherboard.
ExtendedMemory
The BIOS determines how much extended memory is present during the POST.
This is the amount of memory located above 1 MB in the CPU’ s memory
address map.

@ BIOS Introduction
Gigabyte announces @ BIOS
Windows BIOS live update utility
Have you ever updated BIOS by yourself? Or like
many other people, you just know what BIOS is,
but always hesitate to update it? Because you think
updating newest BIOS is unnecessary and actually

Easy TuneTM 4 Introduction
Gigabyte announces EasyTuneTM
4
Windows based Overclocking utility
EasyTune 4 carries on the heritage so as to pave the way for future generations.
Overclock" might be one of the most common issues
in computer field. But have many usersever tried it?
The answer is probably "no". Because "Overclock"
is thought to be very difficult and includes a lot of
technical know-how, sometimes "Overclock" is even
considered as special skills found only in some
enthusiasts. But as to the experts in "Overclock",
what's the truth? They may spend quite a lot of time
and money to study, try and use many different hard-
ware or BIOS tools to do "Overclock". And even with these technologies, they still learn that it's quite a
risk because thesafety and stability of an "Overclock" system is unknown. Now everything is different
because of a Windows based overclocking utility "EasyTune 4" --announced by Gigabyte. This win-
dows based utility has totally changed the gaming rule of "Overclock". This is the first windows based
overclocking utility is suitable for both normal and power users. Users can choose either "Easy Mode"
or "Advanced Mode" for overclocking at their convenience. For users who choose "Easy Mode", they
just need to click "Auto Optimize" to have autoed and immediate CPU overclocking. This software will
then overdrive CPU speed automatically withthe result being shown in the control panel. If users prefer
"Overclock" by them, there is also another choice. Click "Advanced Mode" to enjoy "sport drive" class
Overclocking user interface. "Advanced Mode", allows users to change the system bus / AGP /
Memory working frequency in small increments to get ultimate system performance. It operates in
coordination with Gigabyte motherboards. Besides, it is different from other traditional over-clocking
methods, EasyTune 4 doesn't require users to change neitherBIOS norhardware switch/ jumper setting;
on the other hand, they can do "Overclock"at easy step . Therefore, this is a safer way for "Overclock"
as nothing is changed on software or hardware. If user runs EasyTune 4 over system's limitation, the
biggest lost is only torestart thecomputer again and the side effect is then wel controlled.Moreover, ifone
well-performed system speed has been tested in EasyTune 4, user can "Save" this setting and "Load"
it in next time. Obviously, Gigabyte EasyTune 4 has already turned the "Overclock" technology toward
to a newer generation. This wonderful software is now free bundled in Gigabyte motherboard attached in
driver CD. Users may make a test drive of "EasyTune 4" to find out more amazing features by
themselves.
*Some Gigabyte products are not fully supported by EasyTune 4. Please find the products supported list
in the web site.
*Any "Overclocking action" is at user's risk, Gigabyte Technology will not be responsible for any
damage or instability to your processor, motherboard, or any other components.
