WARNING
Please realize that there is a certain risk involved with overclocking, including
adjusting the setting in the BIOS, applying Untied Overclocking Technology, or using
the third-party overclocking tools. Overclocking may affect your system stability, or
even cause damage to the components and devices of your system. It should be
done at your own risk and expense. We are not responsible for possible damage
caused by overclocking.
CAUTION!
1. This motherboard supports Untied Overclocking Technology. Please read
"Untied Overclocking Technology" on page 32 for details.
2. This motherboard supports Dual Channel Memory Technology. Before
you implement Dual Channel Memory Technology, make sure to read
the installation guide of memory modules on page 11 for proper
installation.
3. Due to the operating system limitation, the actual memory size may be
less than 4GB for the reservation for system usage under Windows
® TM
and Windows Vista . For Windows
64-bit with 64-bit CPU, there is no such limitation.
4. Although this motherboard offers stepless control, it is not recommended
to perform over-clocking. Frequencies other than the recommended CPU
bus frequencies may cause the instability of the system or damage the
CPU.
5. While CPU overheat is detected, the system will automatically shutdown.
Before you resume the system, please check if the CPU fan on the
motherboard functions properly and unplug the power cord, then plug it
back again. To improve heat dissipation, remember to spray thermal grease
between the CPU and the heatsink when you install the PC system.
6. This motherboard supports ASRock AM2 Boost overclocking technology. If
you enable this function in the BIOS setup, the memory performance will
improve up to 12.5%, but the effect still depends on the AM2 CPU you
adopt. Enabling this function will overclock the chipset/CPU reference clock.
However, we can not guarantee the system stability for all CPU/DRAM
configurations. If your system is unstable after AM2 Boost function is enabled,
it may not be applicative to your system. You may choose to disable this
function for keeping the stability of your system.
7. Do NOT use a 3.3V AGP card on the AGP slot of this motherboard! It may
cause permanent damage! If you plan to install Windows
TM
Vista 64-bit OS on this motherboard, please read the instructions and
limitation on page 169 and 170 carefully. For Windows
bit OS, there is no such limitation.
8. For microphone input, this motherboard supports both stereo and mono
modes. For audio output, this motherboard supports 2-channel, 4-channel,
6-channel, and 8-channel modes. Please check the table on page 3 for
proper connection.
