    • (Note 1) Due to Windows 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.

      (Note 2) The 1866 MHz memory speed is supported only when one or two DDR3 1866 MHz DIMMs are installed. It is not supported when four DIMMs are installed. (Dual channel memory mode must be enabled when installing two DIMMs.)

      (Note 3) To use the onboard D-Sub, DVI, Display port or HDMI, must install an AMD CPU with integrated graphics.

      (Note 4) The DVI-D port does not support D-Sub connection by adapter.

      (Note 5) To configure 7.1-channel audio, you have to use an HD front panel audio module and enable the multi-channel audio feature through the audio driver.

      (Note 6) For optimum performance, if only one PCI Express graphics card is to be installed, be sure to install it in the PCIEX16 slot.

      (Note 7) Whether the APU/system fan speed control function is supported will depend on the APU/system cooler you install.

      (Note 8) Available functions in EasyTune may differ by motherboard model.
    • Observação
      1. Due to different Linux support condition provided by chipset vendors, please download Linux driver from chipset vendors' website or 3rd party website.
      2. Most hardware/software vendors may no longer offer drivers to support Win9X/ME/2000/XP SP1/SP2. If drivers are available from the vendors, we will update them on the GIGABYTE website.
