Notes: (1) How to install? Click here. (2) All retail boxed motherboards are opened for receiving purposes. (3) We highly recommendtesting When purchasing a motherboard and a CPU together. (4) Because of the limitations of chipset, this MB does not support Win98/ME. (5) According to official Intel 945GC chipset spec, the chip supports CPU of FSB1066MHz at maximum by default . However, MSI 945GCM5-F V2 will be able to operate at FSB 1333MHz (Core 2 Duo CPUs) by adjusting the CPU FSB frequency in the BIOS (Over-clocking).
Enter BIOS setup menu and go to [Frequency/Voltage Control] --> [Adjust CPU FSB Frequency]. There you can adjust the value to [333] for the Core 2 Duo E6300/E6400/ E6600/E6700 CPUs. Please be noted that this is over-spec, and this overclocking behavior is not recommended. (6) * FSB1333 supported by manually BIOS adjustment (Over-clocking). (7) ** Front USB ports are supported by pin-out.
