2. Einrichtung und Installation

2.1 Komponenteninstallation

Before installing the motherboard into your PC case, ensure all necessary components are prepared. Refer to the quick start guide included in the box for visual instructions.

• Processor (CPU) Installation:
  Carefully open the LGA 1851 socket lever. Align the triangular mark on the CPU with the corresponding mark on the socket. Gently place the CPU into the socket without forcing it, then close the lever to secure it.
• Installation des Arbeitsspeichers (RAM):
  Locate the four DDR5 DIMM slots. Open the retention clips on both ends of the slot. Align the notch on the DDR5 memory module with the key in the DIMM slot. Press down firmly on both ends of the module until the clips snap into place. For optimal performance, install memory modules in the recommended dual-channel configuration as per the motherboard manual.
• Installation des Speichermediums:
  The motherboard features three M.2 slots. For M.2 SSDs, locate the desired slot and remove the M.2 heatsink. Insert the M.2 SSD at an angle into the slot, then gently push it down and secure it with the M.2 Q-Latch mechanism or screw. For SATA drives, connect the SATA data cables to the four SATA 6Gb/s ports and the power cables from your power supply.
• Installation der Grafikkarte (GPU):
  Insert your PCIe 5.0 x16 graphics card into the primary PCIe 5.0 x16 SafeSlot. Ensure the card is seated firmly and the PCIe Slot Q-Release lever locks it into place. Secure the card to the case with screws.
• Power Supply Unit (PSU) Connections:
  Connect the 24-pin ATX main power connector and the 8+8 pin ProCool CPU power connectors from your PSU to the motherboard. Ensure all connections are secure.

2.2 Erster Start und BIOS-Konfiguration

After assembling all components, connect your display, keyboard, and mouse. Power on your system. During the initial boot, press the designated key (usually DEL or F2) to enter the BIOS/UEFI setup. Here you can:

• Stellen Sie das korrekte Datum und die korrekte Uhrzeit ein.
• Configure boot order for your operating system installation media.
• Enable XMP/EXPO profiles for your DDR5 memory to achieve advertised speeds.
• Adjust fan curves using Fan Xpert 4 for optimal cooling and noise levels.
• Update the BIOS using the built-in utility or the BIOS FlashBack™ feature (refer to section 2.3).

2.3 BIOS FlashBack™

The BIOS FlashBack™ feature allows you to update the BIOS without installing a CPU, memory, or graphics card. This is useful for ensuring compatibility with newer processors or recovering from a corrupted BIOS.

1. Laden Sie das neueste BIOS herunter file vom ASUS-Support webWebsite für Ihr spezifisches Motherboard-Modell.
2. Benennen Sie das BIOS um file according to the instructions on the ASUS support page (e.g., 'TUF.CAP').
3. Kopieren Sie das umbenannte BIOS. file to the root directory of a FAT32-formatted USB flash drive.
4. With the system powered off (but PSU connected and switched on), insert the USB flash drive into the dedicated BIOS FlashBack™ USB port on the rear I/O panel.
5. Press and hold the BIOS FlashBack™ button for three seconds until the LED starts blinking.
6. Release the button. The LED will continue to blink, indicating the BIOS update is in progress. Do not remove the USB drive or power off the system during this process.
7. The LED will stop blinking when the update is complete.
