About the setting of "Hyper Threading Technology", please check page 29. This motherboard supports Dual Channel Memory Technology. Before you implement Dual Channel Memory Technology, make sure to read the installation guide of memory modules on page 18 for proper installation. This motherboard doesn't support 128Mbit DRAM Cell (128MB/8 cells; 256MB/16 cells). Although this motherboard offers stepless control, it is not recommended to perform over-clocking. Frequencies other than the recommended CPU bus frequencies may cause the instability of the system or damage the 5. CPU. While CPU overheat is detected, the system will automatically shutdown. Before you resume the system, please check if the CPU fan on the motherboard functions properly and unplug the power cord, then plug it back again. To improve heat dissipation, remember to spray thermal grease between the CPU and the heatsink when you install the PC system. 6. The AGI [ASRock Graphics Interface] slot is a special design that only supports compatible AGP VGA cards. For the information of the compatible AGP VGA cards, please refer to the "Supported AGP VGA Card List for AGI Slot" on page 9 and page 10. For the proper installation of AGP VGA card, please refer to the installation guide on page 20. 7. For the information of the compatible PCI Express VGA cards, please refer to the "Supported PCI Express VGA Card List for AGI Express Slot (PCI Express x 4)" on page 11. For the proper installation of PCI Express VGA card, please refer to the installation guide on page 20. 8. The Max. shared memory of onboard VGA is controlled by Intel VGA driver. Installing different Intel VGA driver may vary its Max. shared memory capacity. For microphone input, this motherboard supports both stereo and mono modes.
