MXGG Series ® CyberResearch Motherboards Chapter 4 4 Installation 54 ©Copyright 2012 CyberResearch, Inc.
® CyberResearch Motherboards MXGG Series 4.1 Anti-static Precautions WARNING: Failure to take ESD precautions during the installation of the MXGG may result in permanent damage to the MXGG and severe injury to the user. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components, including the MXGG. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD.
® MXGG Series CyberResearch Motherboards WARNING: The installation instructions described in this manual should be carefully followed in order to prevent damage to the components and injury to the user. Before and during the installation please DO the following: Read the user manual: o The user manual provides a complete description of the MXGG installation instructions and configuration options. Wear an electrostatic discharge cuff (ESD): o Electronic components are easily damaged by ESD.
® CyberResearch Motherboards MXGG Series 4.3 Basic Installation This section outlines the parts that must be installed for the system to function correctly. 4.3.1 CPU Installation NOTE: To enable Hyper-Threading, the CPU and chipset must both support it. WARNING: CPUs are expensive and sensitive components. When installing the CPU please be careful not to damage it in anyway. Make sure the CPU is installed properly and ensure the correct cooling kit is properly installed.
® MXGG Series CyberResearch Motherboards WARNING: DO NOT touch the pins at the bottom of the CPU. When handling the CPU, only hold it on the sides. Step 1: Remove the protective cover. The black protective cover can be removed by pulling up on the tab labeled "Remove". See Figure 4-2. Figure 4-2: Remove Protective Cover Step 2: Open the socket. Disengage the load lever by pressing the lever down and slightly outward to clear the retention tab. Fully open the lever, then open the load plate.
® CyberResearch Motherboards MXGG Series Step 3: Inspect the CPU socket. Make sure there are no bent pins and make sure the socket contacts are free of foreign material. If any debris is found, remove it with compressed air. Step 4: Orientate the CPU properly. The contact array should be facing the CPU socket. Step 5: Correctly position the CPU. Match the Pin 1 mark with the cut edge on the CPU socket. Step 6: Align the CPU pins. Locate pin 1 and the two orientation notches on the CPU.
® MXGG Series CyberResearch Motherboards 4.3.2 Cooling Kit Installation WARNING: DO NOT use the original Intel® heat sink and fan. A proprietary one is recommended. Figure 4-5: Cooling Kits The cooling kit can be purchased from CyberResearch, Inc.; cooling kits include a heatsink and fan. WARNING: Do not wipe off (accidentally or otherwise) the pre-sprayed layer of thermal paste on the bottom of the heat sink.
® CyberResearch Motherboards MXGG Series Step 3: Mount the cooling kit. Gently place the cooling kit on top of the CPU. Make sure the four threaded screws on the corners of the cooling kit properly pass through the predrilled holes on the bottom of the PCB. Step 4: Secure the cooling kit. From the solder side of the PCB, align the support bracket to the screw threads on heat sink that were inserted through the PCB holes.
® MXGG Series CyberResearch Motherboards 4.3.3 DIMM Installation To install a DIMM, please follow the steps below and refer to Figure 4-7. Figure 4-7: DIMM Installation Step 1: Open the DIMM socket handles. Open the two handles outwards as far as they possible. See Figure 4-7. Step 2: Align the DIMM with the socket. Align the DIMM so the notch lines up with the notch on the memory socket. See Figure 4-7. Step 3: Insert the DIMM. Once aligned, press down until the DIMM is properly seated.
® CyberResearch Motherboards MXGG Series 4.4 Jumper Settings NOTE: A jumper is a metal bridge used to close an electrical circuit. It consists of two or three metal pins and a small metal clip (often protected by a plastic cover) that slides over the pins to connect them. To CLOSE/SHORT a jumper means connecting the pins of the jumper with the plastic clip and to OPEN a jumper means removing the plastic clip from a jumper. The MXGG includes some jumpers shown in Table 4-1.
