⚠
Important
Always insert memory modules in the DIMMB1 slot first.
∙
Due to chipset resource usage, the available capacity of memory will be a little less
∙
than the amount of installed.
Based on processor specification, the Memory DIMM voltage below 1.35V is sug-
∙
gested to protect the processor.
Due to AM4 CPU/memory controller official specification limitation, the frequency
∙
of memory modules may operate lower than the marked value under the default
state. Please refer www.msi.com for more information on compatible memory.

Important
∙
When adding or removing expansion cards, always turn off the power supply and
unplug the power supply power cable from the power outlet. Read the expansion
card's documentation to check for any necessary additional hardware or software
changes.
If you install a large and heavy graphics card, you need to use a tool such as MSI
∙
Gaming Series Graphics Card Bolster to support its weight to prevent deformation
of the slot.
