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) Due to different Linux support condition provided by chipset vendors, please download Linux driver from chipset vendors' website or 3rd party website.
(5) Due to most hardware/software vendors no longer offer support for Win9X/ME. If some vendors still has Win9X/ME drivers available, we will publish on website.
(6) Due to Windows XP 32-bit operating system limitation, when more than 4 GB of physical memory is installed, the actual memory size displayed will be less than 4 GB.
(7) Whether 1200 MHz memory speed is supported depends on the CPU being used.
(8) The DVI-D port does not support D-Sub connection by adapter.
(9) Simultaneous output for DVI-D and HDMI is not supported.
(10) Whether the CPU/system fan speed control function is supported will depend on the CPU/ system cooler you instal.
(11) Available functions in Easytune may differ by motherboard model.
(12) Due to the hardware limitation, you must install an AMD AM2+ Phenom series CPU to enable support for Easy Energy Saver.
