Mainboard KX550

Chapter 1. Getting Started

Introduction

Congratulations on choosing the KX550 Mainboard. It is based on the nVIDIA®nForce 550

chipset. The mainboard supports the AMD AthlonTM 64 FX/ AthlonTM 64 X2 Dual-Core/ AthlonTM

64/ SempronTM Processor with FSB (Front Side Bus) frequencies of 1000 MHz (2000 MT/s).

The KX550 provides four DIMM (Dual In-Line Memory Modules) sockets and which with Dual

Channel Technology supported. The sockets allow you to install 240-pin, non-ECC &

unbuffered DDR II 800/ DDR II 667/ DDR II 533 SDRAM, and support a total memory capacity

of 8GB.

This mainboard provides one PCI-E x16 interface slot up to x16 mode, one Universal PCI-E

interface slot up to x8 mode, and two PCI-E x1 interface slots up to x1 mode can be supported

individually. It is recommended that you can insert a graphics card onto the PCI-E x16 slot, and

an expansion card which the interface is capable for PCI-E x1 and Universal PCI-E specification.

In addition, two standard PCI slots for use with standard PCI expansion cards are also allowed.

The KX550 provides one floppy disk drive connector that can be used with 360KB/ 720KB/

1.2MB/ 1.44MB/ 2.88MB drive. It also has one IDE connector for two hard drives supporting

Ultra ATA 133/ 100/ 66/ 33 IDE devices. Moreover, this mainboard comes with Serial ATA II

support with six SATA II connectors which provide up to 3 Gbps data transfer rates and also

support RAID 0/ 1/ 0+1 mode <See Appendix II>.

The onboard High Definition Audio CODEC (ALC883) supports 8/6/4/2 channel audio play

<See Appendix I>. The mainboard also supports the Sony/Philips Digital Interfaces (SPDIF)

output/input function. (Optional)

The KX550 also comes with an onboard 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet LAN. There is a LAN port

on the back panel of your case that you can directly plug into an internet cable.

In addition, there are maximal ten USB2.0/ 1.1 ports which can be set up on this mainboard.

Hardware Installation

This section will assist you in quickly installing your system hardware. Wear a wrist ground strap

before handling components. Electrostatic discharge may damage your system components.

CPU Processor Installation

This mainboard supports AMD AthlonTM 64 FX/ AthlonTM 64 x2 Dual-Core/ AthlonTM 64/

SempronTM processor and uses a Socket AM2. Before building your system, we suggest you

visit the AMD website and review the processor installation procedures. http://www.amd.com

CPU Socket AM2 Configuration Steps:

1. Locate the CPU socket on your mainboard and nudge the locking lever away from the

socket. Then lift the lever to a 90-degree angle.

2. On the socket, locate the corner which has the “diagonally cut-corner” on the rectangular

shaped pattern of pinholes (see diagram below-left). Match that corner with the “gold

triangle” on the CPU (see diagram below-right) and lower the CPU onto the socket. The

bottom of the CPU should be flush with the face of the socket.

3. Lower the lever until it snaps back into position. This will lock down the CPU.

4. Smear thermal grease on top of the CPU. Lower the CPU fan onto the CPU and use the

clasps on the fan to attach it to the socket. Finally, extend the power cable from the fan and

insert it onto the “CPUFAN” adapter.

Attention

DO NOT touch the CPU pins in case they are damaged. Also, make sure

that you have completed all installation steps before powered on the

system. Finally, double-check that the cooling fan is properly installed and

the CPU fan power cord is securely attached, in case your CPU and other

sensitive components are damaged because of high temperatures.
