It is a key component in contemporary computing systems, providing the foundation for powerful and efficient CPUs. Installing the CPU to the AM5 socket The surface of the AM5 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. To install the CPU, align the two notches on the AM5 socket with the two corresponding notches on the CPU. Please ensure that the gold triangle on the CPU serves as the PIN 1 indicator during the installation process. Pin 1 indicator Notches 53.74 mm Distance from the center of the CPU socket to the nearest DIMM slot. 28 Important When changing the processor, the system configuration could be cleared and reset BIOS to default values, due to the AM5 processor's architecture. Please ensure that the motherboard and power supply are turned off and always disconnect 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. Whenever the CPU is not installed, always protect the CPU socket pins by covering the socket with the protective cap. The CPU should only fit in one orientation, so do not force it. Gently place the CPU into the socket without applying excessive pressure. Please handle the CPU by the edges only; avoid touching the pins or the surface of the CPU. Any damage to the pins can result in a malfunctioning CPU. When installing a CPU, always remember to install a CPU heatsink. A CPU heatsink is necessary to prevent overheating and maintain system stability. Please install the CPU cooler according to the manufacturer's instructions. Make sure it is securely a tight seal with the CPU and attached to the motherboard to ensure proper heat dissipation. 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. 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. 29 DDR5 DIMM Slots The DDR5 DIMM slot is a dedicated connector designed to accommodate DDR5 (Double Data Rate 5) memory modules. It represents the latest standard in computer memory, providing enhanced data transfer speeds and efficiency. DIMMA1 DIMMA2 Channel A DIMMB1 DIMMB2 Channel B Memory module installation recommendation DIMMA2 Important Always insert memory modules in the DIMMA2 slot first. 30 DIMMB2 DIMMA2 DIMMB2 DIMMB1 DIMMA2 DIMMA1 Important The DIMM slots on this motherboard only have a single latch. Please be careful when installing or removing memory modules to avoid damaging the slots. Align the notch on the DDR5 module with the notch on the memory slot to ensure proper orientation. Do not force the module into the slot; it should slide in easily if properly aligned. 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 Speed 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 to www.msi.com for more information on compatible memory. 31 PCI_E1~3: PCIe Expansion Slots PCI Express (PCIe) expansion slots are used to connect add-on cards to the motherboard.
