1-3 Installing the APU

Read the following guidelines before you begin to install the APU:

• Make sure that the motherboard supports the APU.

(Go to GIGABYTE's website for the latest APU support list.)

• Always turn off the computer and unplug the power cord from the power outlet before installing the

APU to prevent hardware damage.

• Locate the pin one of the APU. The APU cannot be inserted if oriented incorrectly.

• Apply an even and thin layer of thermal grease on the surface of the APU.

• Do not turn on the computer if the APU cooler is not installed, otherwise overheating and damage

of the APU may occur.

• Set the APU host frequency in accordance with the APU specications. It is not recommended

that the system bus frequency be set beyond hardware specications since it does not meet the

standard requirements for the peripherals. If you wish to set the frequency beyond the standard

specications, please do so according to your hardware specications including the APU, graphics

card, memory, hard drive, etc.

Read the following guidelines before you begin to install the memory:

• Make sure that the motherboard supports the memory. It is recommended that memory of the

same capacity, brand, speed, and chips be used.

(Go to GIGABYTE's website for the latest supported memory speeds and memory modules.)

• Always turn off the computer and unplug the power cord from the power outlet before installing the

memory to prevent hardware damage.

• Memory modules have a foolproof design. A memory module can be installed in only one direction.

If you are unable to insert the memory, switch the direction.
