Overview of Components

CPU Socket

Distance from the center of the

CPU to the nearest DIMM slot.

50.77 mm

Introduction to the LGA 1200 CPU

The surface of the LGA 1200 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.

Important

∙∙Always unplug the power cord from the power outlet before installing or removing the CPU.

∙∙Please retain the CPU protective cap after installing the processor.MSI will deal with Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) requests if only the motherboard comes with the protective cap on the CPU socket.

∙∙When installing a CPU, always remember to install a CPU heatsink.A CPU heatsink is necessary to prevent overheating and maintain system stability.

∙∙Confirm that the CPU heatsink has formed a tight seal with the CPU before booting your system.

∙∙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.

∙∙Whenever the CPU is not installed, always protect the CPU socket pins by covering the socket with the plastic cap.

∙∙If you purchased a separate CPU and heatsink/ cooler, Please refer to the documentation in the heatsink/ cooler package for more details about installation.

∙∙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 recommended. MSI® does not guarantee the damages or risks caused by inadequate operation beyond product specifications.

DIMM Slots

DIMMA1 DIMMB1

DIMMA2DIMMB2

Memory module installation recommendation

Important

Always insert memory modules in the DIMMA2 slot first.

∙∙To ensure system stability for Dual channel mode, memory modules must be of the same type, number and density.

∙∙Some memory modules may operate at a lower frequency than the marked value when overclocking due to the memory frequency operates dependent on its Serial

Presence Detect (SPD).Go to BIOS and find the DRAM Frequency to set the memory frequency if you want to operate the memory at the marked or at a higher frequency.

∙∙It is recommended to use a more efficient memory cooling system for full DIMMs installation or overclocking.

∙∙The stability and compatibility of installed memory module depend on installed CPU and devices when overclocking.

∙∙Please refer www.msi.com for more information on compatible memory.

PCI_E1~5: PCIe Expansion Slots

PCI_E1: PCIe 3.0 x16 (CPU)

PCI_E2: PCIe 3.0 x1 (PCH)

PCI_E3: PCIe 3.0 x4 (PCH)

PCI_E4: PCIe 3.0 x1 (PCH)

PCI_E5: PCIe 3.0 x1 (PCH)

Important

∙∙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.

∙∙For a single PCIe x16 expansion card installation with optimum performance, using the PCI_E1 slot is recommended.

∙∙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.
