Safety Information 3

Safety Information

∙ 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.

∙ 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 anti-static

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 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 certified computer

technician.

∙ Always turn off the power supply and unplug the power cord from the power outlet

before installing or removing any computer component.

∙ Keep this user guide for future reference.

∙ Keep this motherboard away from humidity.

∙ Make sure that your electrical outlet provides the same voltage as is indicated on

the PSU, before connecting the PSU to the electrical outlet.

∙ Place the power cord such a way that people can not step on it. Do not place

anything over the power cord.

∙ All cautions and warnings on the motherboard should be noted.

∙ If any of the following situations arises, get the motherboard checked by service

personnel:

▪ Liquid has penetrated into the computer.

▪ The motherboard has been exposed to moisture.

▪ The motherboard does not work well or you can not get it work according to user

guide.

▪ The motherboard has been dropped and damaged.

▪ The motherboard has obvious sign of breakage.

∙ Do not leave this motherboard in an environment above 60°C (140°F), it may damage

the motherboard.

4 Contents

Case stand-off notification

To prevent damage to the motherboard, any unnecessary mounting stand-off between

the motherboard circuits and the computer case is prohibited. The Case standoff keep

out zone signs will be marked on the backside of motherboard (as shown below) to

serve as a warning to user.

Avoid collision notification

Protective paint is printed around each screw hole to prevent parts from being

scratched.

18 Overview of Components

⚠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.

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 to www.msi.com for more information on compatible memory.

⚠Important

∙ If you install a large and heavy graphics card, you need to use a tool such as MSI

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.

CPU_FAN1, PUMP_FAN1, SYS_FAN1~6: Fan Connectors

Fan connectors can be classified as PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) Mode or DC Mode.

PWM Mode fan connectors provide constant 12V output and adjust fan speed with

speed control signal. DC Mode fan connectors control fan speed by changing voltage.

However, you can follow the instruction below to adjust the fan connector to PWM or

DC Mode manually.

Switching fan mode and adjusting fan speed

You can switch between PWM mode and DC mode and adjust fan speed in BIOS >

HARDWARE MONITOR.

Select PWM mode or DC mode

⚠Important

Make sure fans are working properly after switching the PWM/ DC mode.

There are gradient points of the fan speed that allow you to adjust

fan speed in relation to CPU temperature.

36 UEFI BIOS

UEFI BIOS

MSI UEFI BIOS is compatible with UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface)

architecture. UEFI has many new functions and advantages that traditional BIOS

cannot achieve, and it will completely replace BIOS in the future. The MSI UEFI

BIOS uses UEFI as the default boot mode to take full advantage of the new chipset’s

capabilities.

⚠Important

The term BIOS in this user guide refers to UEFI BIOS unless otherwise noted.

UEFI advantages

∙ Fast booting - UEFI can directly boot the operating system and save the BIOS selftest process. And also eliminates the time to switch to CSM mode during POST.

∙ Supports for hard drive partitions larger than 2 TB.

∙ Supports more than 4 primary partitions with a GUID Partition Table (GPT).

∙ Supports unlimited number of partitions.

∙ Supports full capabilities of new devices - new devices may not provide backward

compatibility.

∙ Supports secure startup - UEFI can check the validity of the operating system to

ensure that no malware tampers with the startup process.

Incompatible UEFI cases

∙ 32-bit Windows operating system - this motherboard supports only Windows 10/

Windows 11 64-bit operating system.

∙ Older graphics card - the system will detect your graphics card. When display a

warning message There is no GOP (Graphics Output protocol) support detected in

this graphics card.

⚠Important

We recommend that you to replace with a GOP/UEFI compatible graphics card or

using integrated graphics from CPU for having normal function.

How to check the BIOS mode?

1. Power on your computer.

2. Press Delete key, when the Press DEL key to enter Setup Menu, F11 to enter

Boot Menu message appears on the screen during the boot process.

3. After entering the BIOS, you can check the BIOS Mode at the top of the screen.

Updating BIOS

Updating BIOS with M-FLASH

Before updating:

Please download the latest BIOS file that matches your motherboard model from MSI

website. And then save the BIOS file into the USB flash drive.

Updating BIOS:

1. Switch to the target BIOS ROM by Multi-BIOS switch. Please skip this step if your

motherboard doesn't has this switch.

2. Insert the USB flash drive that contains the update file into the USB port.

3. Please refer the following methods to enter flash mode.

▪ Reboot and press Ctrl + F5 key during POST and click on Yes to reboot the

system.

Press <Ctrl+F5> to activate M-Flash for BIOS update.

▪ Reboot and press Del key during POST to enter BIOS. Click the M-FLASH button

and click on Yes to reboot the system.
