5.1. Preparing the Mainboard

1. Place the mainboard on a non-conductive, flat surface (e.g., the anti-static bag it came in).
2. Instalirajte CPU:
   • Open the CPU socket retention levers.
   • Carefully align the CPU with the socket, ensuring the gold triangle on the CPU matches the triangle on the socket.
   • Pažljivo spustite CPU u utičnicu. Nemojte ga silom umetnuti.
   • Close the retention levers to secure the CPU.
3. Instalirajte hladnjak procesora:
   • Apply thermal paste to the CPU if not pre-applied on the cooler.
   • Mount the CPU cooler according to its manufacturer's instructions.
   • Connect the CPU fan cable to the CPU_FAN header on the mainboard.
4. Install Memory Modules (RAM):
   • Otvorite kopče na oba kraja DIMM utora.
   • Poravnajte zarez na DDR4 memorijskom modulu s ključem u DIMM utoru.
   • Press down firmly on both ends of the memory module until the clips snap into place. For quad-channel, refer to the mainboard's silkscreen for recommended slot population order.

5.2. Installing the Mainboard into the Chassis

1. Install the I/O Shield into the rear opening of your computer case.
2. Align the mainboard with the standoffs in the chassis.
3. Secure the mainboard with screws, ensuring it is firmly seated.

5.3. Povezivanje perifernih uređaja i napajanja

1. Connect the 24-pin ATX power cable from the power supply to the mainboard.
2. Connect the 8-pin EPS (CPU) power cable from the power supply to the mainboard.
3. Install your graphics card (if applicable) into the primary PCIe x16 slot and connect any required PCIe power cables from the power supply.
4. Connect SATA data cables from your storage devices (HDDs/SSDs) to the SATA ports on the mainboard. Connect SATA power cables from the power supply to the devices.
5. Connect front panel cables (Power SW, Reset SW, HDD LED, Power LED, USB, Audio) to their respective headers on the mainboard. Refer to the mainboard's silkscreen or a detailed diagram for correct pin assignments.
6. Connect any additional fans to the fan headers on the mainboard.

6. Uputstvo za upotrebu

After successful installation, you can proceed with initial boot-up and system configuration.

6.1. Početno pokretanje

1. Uvjerite se da su sve veze sigurne.
2. Povežite monitor, tastaturu i miš.
3. Connect the power supply to a wall outlet and flip the power switch on the PSU to the 'ON' position.
4. Pritisnite dugme za napajanje na kućištu računara.
5. Observe the POST (Power-On Self-Test) process. The debug LED on the mainboard will display codes indicating the boot status.
