Assembly Precautions

The components included in this package are prone to damage from electrostatic

■
discharge (ESD). Please adhere to the following instructions to ensure successful
computer assembly.
Always turn o󰘯 the power supply and unplug the power cord from the power outlet

■
before installing or removing any computer component.
Ensure that all components are securely connected. Loose connections may cause

■
the computer to not recognize a component or fail to start.
Hold the motherboard by the edges to avoid touching sensitive components.

■
It is recommended to wear an electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist strap when

■
handling the motherboard to prevent electrostatic damage. If an ESD wrist strap is
not available, discharge yourself of static electricity by touching another metal object
before handling the motherboard.
Store the motherboard in an electrostatic shielding container or on an antistatic pad

■
whenever the motherboard is not installed.
Before turning on the computer, ensure that there are no loose screws or metal

■
components on the motherboard or anywhere within the computer case.
Do not use the computer in a high-temperature environment.

■
Do not boot the computer before installation is completed. This could cause

■
permanent damage to the components as well as injury to the user.
If you need help during any installation step, please consult a certi󰘰ed computer

■
technician.

CPU (Central Processing Unit)

Introduction to the LGA 1150 CPU

The surface of the LGA 1150 CPU has two notches and a golden triangle to
assist in correctly lining up the CPU for motherboard placement. The golden
triangle is the Pin 1 indicator.

Overheating
Overheating can seriously damage the CPU and motherboard. Always make sure the

cooling fans work properly to protect the CPU from overheating. Be sure to apply an
even layer of thermal paste (or thermal tape) between the CPU and the heatsink to
enhance heat dissipation.

Replacing the CPU
When replacing the CPU, always turn o󰘯 the system’s power supply and unplug the

power supply’s power cord to ensure the safety of the CPU.
Overclocking

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 speci󰘰cations is not recommend. MSI does not
guarantee the damages or risks caused by inadequate operation beyond product
speci󰘰cations.

CPU & Heatsink Installation

When installing a CPU, always remember to install a CPU heatsink. A CPU heatsink
is necessary to prevent overheating and maintain system stability. Follow the steps
below to ensure correct CPU and heatsink installation. Wrong installation can damage
both the CPU and the motherboard.

Watch the video to learn how to install CPU & heatsink. at the address
below.

3. Align the notches with the socket alignment keys. Lower the CPU straight down,
without tilting or sliding the CPU in the socket. Inspect the CPU to check if it is
properly seated in the socket.

4. Close and slide the load plate under the retention knob. Close and engage the
load lever.

5. When you press down the load lever the PnP cap will automatically pop up from
the CPU socket. Do not discard the PnP cap. Always replace the PnP cap if the
CPU is removed from the socket.

6. Evenly spread a thin layer of thermal paste (or thermal tape) on the top of the
CPU. This will help in heat dissipation and prevent CPU overheating.

Mounting Screw Holes

When installing the motherboard, 󰘰rst install the necessary mounting stands required
for an motherboard on the mounting plate in your computer case. If there is an
I/O back plate that came with the computer case, please replace it with the I/O
backplate that came with the motherboard package. The I/O backplate should snap
easily into the computer case without the need for any screws. Align the mounting
plate’s mounting stands with the screw holes on the motherboard and secure the
motherboard with the screws provided with your computer case. The locations of the
screw holes on the motherboard are shown below. For more information, please refer
to the manual that came with the computer case.

Chapter 1

The I/O ports should be facing

toward the rear of the computer

case. They should line up with the

holes on the I/O backplate.

Important

Install the motherboard on a 󰘱at surface free from unnecessary debris.

•

To prevent damage to the motherboard, any contact between the motherboard

•

circuitry and the computer case, except for the mounting stands, is prohibited.
Please make sure there are no loose metal components on the motherboard or

•

within the computer case that may cause a short circuit of the motherboard.
