D K 8 X M o t h e r b o a r d CN20: Chassis Intrusion Switch Connector This feature uses a mechanical switch on the ch assis that connects to the chassis intrusion connector on the motherboard. The motherboard circuitry will detect the intrusion when the chassis cover is removed.
C h a p t e r 2 H a r d w a r e I n s t a l l a t i o n I NSTALLING M EMORY This Mainboard uses Dual Inline Memo ry Modules (DIMM). Eight DIMM socket memory banks are available, four memory bank for each CPU socket.
D K 8 X M o t h e r b o a r d Memory Installation Procedures This section outlines how to instal l Registered PC2100/ PC2700/PC3200 DDR DIMMs into the Mainboard.
C h a p t e r 2 H a r d w a r e I n s t a l l a t i o n 3. Insert the module into the DIMM socket and press down evenly on both ends firm ly until the DIMM module is securely in place. (The tabs of the DIMM socket will close-up to hold the DIMM in place when the DIMM is properly installed on the socket’s bottom.
D K 8 X M o t h e r b o a r d R ECOMMENDED M EMORY C ONFIGURAT IONS The AMD Opteron processors have very sp ecific memory module requirements, and due to the design of the Mainboard, there are certai n configurations of memory that work best to make the most ef fective use of the memory bandwidth.
C h a p t e r 2 H a r d w a r e I n s t a l l a t i o n Heatsink Installation CAUTION: As with all computer equipment, the processor and motherboard components ma y be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD). Please take proper ESD precautions when handli ng an y board.
D K 8 X M o t h e r b o a r d Step 5. Step 4 Carefully place the retention frame on the motherboard. The screw holes must align with the backplate standoffs. Press firmly on the socket to ensure proper contact of the backplate and motherboard. Step 7 Step 6 Warning: Do not apply voltage until the heatsink is fully installed.
C h a p t e r 2 H a r d w a r e I n s t a l l a t i o n S tep 8 S tep 9 1. Gently push down on the pr ocessor while lowering the locking lever and latching it into the fully locked position. 2. Do not apply an y power (voltage) to the system until the heatsink is fully installed.
D K 8 X M o t h e r b o a r d S tep 12 S tep 13 The spring clip must be installed as shown. 1. Make sure the retention clip is aligned with the plastic lug on the retention frame. 2. Carefully push straight down on the clip. This may take more force than the first side.
C h a p t e r 2 H a r d w a r e I n s t a l l a t i o n T HE AGP P RO S LOT The Mainboard does not feature an integrated vi deo solution. Therefore, you will need to install a video card to use the Main board.
D K 8 X M o t h e r b o a r d EPS12V P OWER C ONNECTO RS Find the proper orientation of the connectors an d push down firmly to make sure that the pins are aligned (the connector will only in sert properly when properly aligned).
