Expansion cards contain very delicate Integrated Circuit (IC) chips. To

protect them against damage from static electricity, you should follow some

precautions whenever you work on your computer.

1. Turn off your computer and unplug power supply.

2. Use a grounded wrist strap before handling computer components. If you do not have

one, touch both of your hands to a safely grounded object or to a metal object, such as

the power supply case.

3. Place components on a grounded antistatic pad or on the bag that came with the

components whenever the components are separated from the system.

The card contains sensitive electric components, which can be easily damaged by static

electricity, so the card should be left in its original packing until it is installed.

Unpacking and installation should be done on a grounded anti-static mat. The operator

should be wearing an anti-static wristband, grounded at the same point as the anti-static

mat.

Inspect the card carton for obvious damage. Shipping and handling may cause damage

to your card. Be sure there are no shipping and handling damages on the card before

proceeding.

DO NOT APPLY POWER TO YOUR SYSTEM IF IT HAS BEEN DAMAGED ON

THE CARD.

In order to ensure your graphics card working correctly, please use official

Gigabyte BIOS only. Use none official Gigabyte BIOS might cause problem

on the graphics card.

your computer.

Or, if your computer has any on-board

graphics capability, you may need to disable

it on the motherboard. For more information,

please see your computer documentation.

To install your new graphics card:

1. Locate two PCI Express x 16 slots. If

necessary, remove the metal covers from

the slots; then align your graphics card with

the PCI Express x 16 slots, and press it in

firmly until the card is fully seated.

* Please make sure that the gold edge connectors of the graphics card is securely inserted.

card; then turn on the computer and monitor.

connectors, to connect a flat panel directly to

your graphics card, use the DVI-I connector.

To connect a VGA monitor to the DVI-I

connector, plug the DVI-I to D-sub adapter

intotheDVI-I connector, thenplugthe monitor

cable into the adapter.

You are now ready to proceed with the installation of the graphics card driver. Please refer

to next chapter for detailed instructions.

To TV/VCR

When installing the graphics card, do not push

down the heat pipe. This may displace the heat

pipe and cause bad contact between the GPU

and thermal pad as well as affect the heat

dissipation. To avoid system instability, do not

touch the graphics card when it is runnnig .
