Configuració i instal·lació
Instal·lació de la CPU
1. Preparing the CPU Socket: Locate the AM4 CPU socket on the motherboard. Gently push down the small metal lever next to the socket and pull it to the side to open the retention frame.
2. Installing the CPU: Carefully align the triangular mark on your AMD Ryzen processor with the corresponding mark on the CPU socket. Gently place the CPU into the socket without applying force. Once seated, close the retention frame and push the lever back into its locked position.
Instal·lació de memòria (RAM)
The motherboard supports DDR4 memory. Locate the two DIMM slots. Open the clips at both ends of the memory slots. Align the notch on the memory module with the key in the DIMM slot. Insert the memory module firmly until the clips snap into place, securing the module.
Instal·lació SSD M.2
Locate the M.2 slot on the motherboard. Insert your M.2 SSD into the slot at an angle. Gently push down the SSD and secure it with the provided M.2 screw.
Connexió de perifèrics
Connect your power supply's 24-pin ATX power connector and 8-pin CPU power connector to the motherboard. Connect SATA data cables from your storage drives to the SATA 6Gb/s ports. Connect front panel headers (power button, reset button, USB, audio) to their respective pins on the motherboard, referring to the motherboard layout diagram in the user manual for exact locations.
Instal·lació del sistema operatiu
Configuració de la BIOS
Upon first boot, or if you need to adjust system settings, press the DEL key during startup to enter the BIOS (Basic Input/Output System). Here you can configure boot order, system time, and other hardware settings.
OS Installation
Insert your operating system installation media (USB drive or DVD) into your computer. Ensure the boot order in BIOS is set to prioritize your installation media. Follow the on-screen prompts to install your preferred operating system, such as Windows 10 or a Linux distribution.
Manteniment
Neteja
Regularly clean your motherboard and PC components to prevent dust buildup, which can lead to overheating and performance issues. Use compressed air to remove dust from heatsinks and fans. For stubborn dirt, use a soft, lint-free cloth lightly dampened with isopropyl alcohol. Always ensure the system is powered off and unplugged before cleaning.
Actualitzacions de la BIOS
Consulteu periòdicament el suport oficial d'ASUS website for BIOS updates. BIOS updates can improve system stability, add support for new hardware, and fix bugs. Follow the instructions provided by ASUS carefully when performing a BIOS update to avoid system damage.
Resolució de problemes

If your monitor shows no signal, ensure all power cables are securely connected to the motherboard and graphics card (if applicable). Verify that the monitor cable is properly connected to both the monitor and the motherboard/graphics card. Reseat your RAM modules and graphics card to ensure they are properly seated in their slots.
System Not Booting
If the system powers on but does not boot, check the CPU and RAM installation. Ensure the 24-pin ATX and 8-pin CPU power connectors are firmly seated. Listen for any beep codes from the motherboard's speaker, which can indicate specific hardware issues. Consult the motherboard manual for a list of beep codes and their meanings.
Peripheral Recognition Issues
If USB devices or SATA drives are not recognized, ensure they are properly connected. Install the latest drivers for your motherboard's chipset and integrated peripherals from the ASUS support website. Check BIOS settings to ensure relevant ports are enabled.
