Federal Communications Commission Statement
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
•This device may not cause harmful interference, and
•This device must accept any interference received including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
•Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
•Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
•Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
•Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

France Restricted Wireless Frequency Bands
Some areas of France have a restricted frequency band. The worst case maximum authorized power indoors are:
•10mW for the entire 2.4 GHz band (2400 MHz–2483.5 MHz)
•100mW for frequencies between 2446.5 MHz and 2483.5 MHz
Channels 10 through 13 inclusive operate in the band 2446.6 MHz to 2483.5 MHz.
There are few possibilities for outdoor use: On private property or on the private property of public persons, use is subject to a preliminary authorization procedure by the Ministry of Defense, with maximum authorized power of 100mW in the 2446.5–2483.5 MHz band. Use outdoors on public property is not permitted.
In the departments listed below, for the entire 2.4 GHz band:
•Maximum authorized power indoors is 100mW
•Maximum authorized power outdoors is 10mW

2.1Before you proceed
Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components or change any motherboard settings.
•Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any component.
•Before handling components, use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded object or a metal object, such as the power supply case, to avoid damaging them due to static electricity.
•Hold components by the edges to avoid touching the ICs on them.
•Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded antistatic pad or in the bag that came with the component.
•Before you install or remove any component, ensure that the ATX power supply is switched off or the power cord is detached from the power supply. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to the motherboard, peripherals, or components.

2.2.3Central Processing Unit (CPU)
The motherboard comes with a surface mount LGA1155 socket designed for the Intel® 2nd Generation Core™ i7 / Core™ i5 / Core™ i3 Processors.
Ensure that all power cables are unplugged before installing the CPU.
•The LGA1156 CPU is incompatible with the LGA1155 socket. DO NOT install a LGA1156 CPU on the LGA1155 socket.
•Upon purchase of the motherboard, ensure that the PnP cap is on the socket and the socket contacts are not bent. Contact your retailer
immediately if the PnP cap is missing, or if you see any damage to the PnP cap/socket contacts/motherboard components. ASUS will shoulder the cost of repair only if the damage is shipment/transit-related.
•Keep the cap after installing the motherboard. ASUS will process Return
MerchandiseAuthorization (RMA) requests only if the motherboard comes with the cap on the LGA1155 socket.
•The product warranty does not cover damage to the socket contacts resulting from incorrect CPU installation/removal, or misplacement/loss/ incorrect removal of the PnP cap.
2-4 |
Chapter 2: Hardware information |
2.2.4System memory
The motherboard comes with four Double Data Rate 3 (DDR3) Dual Inline Memory Modules (DIMM) slots.
A DDR3 module is notched differently from a DDR or DDR2 module. DO NOT install a DDR or DDR2 memory module to the DDR3 slot.
Recommended memory configurations
ASUS Maximus IV Extreme |
2-5 |
Memory configurations
You may install 1GB, 2GB and 4GB unbuffered and non ECC DDR3 DIMMs into the DIMM sockets.
•You may install varying memory sizes in ChannelAand Channel B. The system maps the total size of the lower-sized channel for the dual-channel configuration.Any excess memory from the higher-sized channel is then mapped for single-channel operation.
•Due to CPU behavior, DDR3 2333/2250/2200/2000/1800 MHz memory module will run at DDR3 2133/2133/2133/1866/1600 MHz frequency as default.
•The max. 32GB memory capacity can be supported with DIMMs of 8GB (or above). ASUS will update QVL once the DIMMs are available on the market.
•According to Intel CPU spec, DIMM voltage below 1.65V is recommended to protect the CPU.
•Always install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. For optimum compatibility, we recommend that you obtain memory modules from the same vendor.
•Due to the memory address limitation on 32-bit Windows OS, when you install 4GB or more memory on the motherboard, the actual usable memory for the OS can be about 3GB or less. For effective use of memory, we recommend that you do any of the following:
—Use a maximum of 3GB system memory if you are using a 32-bit Windows OS.
—Install a 64-bit Windows OS when you want to install 4GB or more on the motherboard.
For more details, refer to the Microsoft® support site at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929605/en-us.
•This motherboard does not support DIMMs made up of 512Mb (64MB) chips or less (Memory chip capacity counts in Megabit, 8 Megabit/Mb = 1 Megabyte/MB).
•The default memory operation frequency is dependent on its Serial Presence Detect (SPD), which is the standard way of accessing information from a memory module. Under the default state, some memory modules for overclocking may operate at a lower frequency than the vendor-marked value. To operate at the vendor-marked or at a higher frequency, refer to section 3.4 Ai Tweaker menu for manual memory frequency adjustment.
•For system stability, use a more efficient memory cooling system to support a full memory load (4 DIMMs) or overclocking condition.

•4 DIMM slots:
1 DIMM: Supports one module inserted in any slot as single-channel memory configuration.
2 DIMMs: Support one pair of modules inserted into either the red slots or the gray slots as one pair of dual-channel memory configuration.
4 DIMMs: Support 4 modules inserted into both the red and gray slots as two pairs of dual-channel memory configuration.
•When installing total memory of 4GB capacity or more, Windows 32bit operating system may only recognize less than 3GB. Hence, a total installed memory of less than 3GB is recommended.
•It is recommended to install the memory modules from the red slots for better overclocking capacity.
•Due to CPU behavior, DDR3 2333/2250/2200/2000/1800 MHz memory module will run at DDR3 2133/2133/2133/1866/1600 MHz frequency as default.

• In single VGA card mode, use the PCIE_X16/X8_1 slot for a PCI Express x16 graphics card to get better performance.
•In CrossFireX™ or SLI™ mode, use the PCIE_X16/8_1 and PCIEX8_3 slots for PCI Express x16 graphics cards to get better performance.
•In 3-way SLI mode, use the PCIE_X16/8_1, PCIE_X16_2 and PCIE_X16_4 slots for PCI Express x16 graphics cards to get better performance.
•Connect a chassis fan to the motherboard connector labeled CHA_FAN1/2/3 when using multiple graphics cards for better thermal environment.
