Important
Overheating
Overheating can seriously damage the APU and motherboard. Always make sure the
cooling fans work properly to protect the APU from overheating. Be sure to apply an
even layer of thermal paste (or thermal tape) between the APU and the heatsink to
enhance heat dissipation.
Replacing the APU
When replacing the APU, always turn off the system's power supply and unplug the
power supply's power cord to ensure the safety of the APU.

This motherboard is designed to support overclocking. Before attempting to overclock,
please make sure that all other system components can tolerate overclocking. Any
attempt to operate beyond product specifications is not recommend. MSI does not
guarantee the damages or risks caused by inadequate operation beyond product
specifications.
