Hardware Installation This section will guide you through the installation of the motherboard. The topics covered in this section are: Preparing the motherboard ¾ Installing the CPU ¾ Installing the CPU fan ¾ Installing the memory Installing the motherboard Connecting cables and setting switches Safety Instructions To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury, always follow basic safety precautions.
Installing and Configuring the NVIDIA nForce 650i Ultra Motherboard Preparing the Motherboard The motherboard shipped in the box does not contain a CPU or memory. You need to purchase a CPU, a CPU fan assembly, and memory to complete this installation. Installing the CPU Be very careful when handling the CPU. Make sure not to bend or break any pins on the back. Hold the processor only by the edges and do not touch the bottom of the processor.
Hardware Installation Installing the CPU Fan There are many different fan types that can be used with this motherboard. Follow the instruction that came with you fan assembly. Be sure that the fan orientation is correct for your chassis type and your fan assembly. Installing Memory DIMMs Your new motherboard has four 1.8V 240-pin slots for DDR2 memory. These slots support 256 Mb, 512 Mb, 1 Gb, and 2GB DDR2 modules. They also support dual channel DDR2 memory technology up to 10.7GB/s.
Installing and Configuring the NVIDIA nForce 650i Ultra Motherboard Installing the Motherboard The sequence of installing the motherboard into the chassis depends on the chassis you are using and if you are replacing an existing motherboard or working with an empty chassis. Determine if it would be easier to make all the connections prior to this step or to secure the motherboard and then make all the connections.
Hardware Installation Connecting Cables and Setting Switches This section takes you through all the connections and switch settings necessary on the motherboard. This will include: Power Connections ¾ 24-pin ATX power (PWR1) ¾ 8-pin ATX 12V power (PWR2) Internal Headers ¾ Front panel ¾ USB Headers ¾ Audio ¾ COM FDD IDE Serial ATA II Chassis Fans Rear panel USB 2.
Installing and Configuring the NVIDIA nForce 650i Ultra Motherboard Power Connections This motherboard requires an ATX power supply. Make sure you have enough power to cover all the expansion cards you will be installing. To determine what you power requirements are for your specific configuration, refer to www.slizone.com. 24-pin ATX Power (PWR1) is the main power supply connector located along the edge of the board next to the DIMM slots.
Hardware Installation 8-pin ATX 12V Power (PWR2) PWR2, the 8-pin ATX 12V power connection, is used to provide power to the CPU. Align the pins to the connector and press firmly until seated. Backpanel connector edge. 5 1 12V GND 8 4 Connect a four-pin power plug to pins 3, 4, 7, and 8. 5 1 It is strongly recommended that you use an 8-pin ATX 12V power supply; however, if you have a four-pin power supply, plug the connector to pins 1, 2, 5, and 6 as shown.
Installing and Configuring the NVIDIA nForce 650i Ultra Motherboard Connecting Serial ATA Cables The Serial ATA II connector is used to connect the Serial ATA II device to the motherboard. These connectors support the thin Serial ATA II cables for primary storage devices. The current Serial ATA II interface allows up to 300MB/s data transfer rate. There are four serial ATA connectors on the motherboard that support RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 0+1 and JBOD configurations.
Hardware Installation Connecting Internal Headers Front Panel Header The front panel header on this motherboard is one connector used to connect the following four cables: PWRLED Attach the front panel power LED cable to these two pins of the connector. The Power LED indicates the system’s status. When the system is in S0 status, the LED is on. When the system is in S1, S3, S4, S5 status, the LED is off.
