Overview of Components

msi-MAG--Mortar--Fi-Gaming-Motherboard-FIG-18

CPU Socket

msi-MAG--Mortar--Fi-Gaming-Motherboard-FIG-19

Introduction to the LGA 1200 CPU
The surface of the LGA 1200 CPU has two notches and a golden triangle to assist in correctly lining up the CPU for motherboard placement. The golden triangle is the Pin 1 indicator.

Important

  • Always unplug the power cord from the power outlet before installing or removing the CPU.

  • Please retain the CPU protective cap after installing the processor. MSI will deal with Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) requests if only the motherboard comes with the protective cap on the CPU socket.

  • When installing a CPU, always remember to install a CPU heatsink. A CPU heatsink is necessary to prevent overheating and maintain system stability.

  • Confirm that the CPU heatsink has formed a tight seal with the CPU before booting your system.

  • Overheating can seriously damage the CPU and motherboard. Always make sure
    the cooling fans work properly to protect the CPU from overheating. Be sure to apply an even layer of thermal paste (or thermal tape) between the CPU and the heatsink to enhance heat dissipation.

  • Whenever the CPU is not installed, always protect the CPU socket pins by covering the socket with a plastic cap.

  • If you purchased a separate CPU and heatsink/ cooler, Please refer to the
    documentation in the heatsink/ cooler package for more details about installation.

  • This motherboard is designed to support overclocking. Before attempting to overclock, please make sure that all other system components can tolerate overclocking. Any attempt to operate beyond product specifications is not recommended. MSI® does not guarantee the damages or risks caused by inadequate operation beyond product specifications.

DIMM Slots

Memory module installation recommendation

msi-MAG--Mortar--Fi-Gaming-Motherboard-FIG-21

Important

  • Always insert memory modules in the DIMMA2 slot first.
  • To ensure system stability for Dual channel mode, memory modules must be of the same type, number, and density.
  • Some memory modules may operate at a lower frequency than the marked value when overclocking due to the memory frequency operating dependent on its Serial Presence Detect (SPD). Go to BIOS and find the DRAM Frequency to set the memory frequency if you want to operate the memory at the market or a higher frequency.
  • It is recommended to use a more efficient memory cooling system for full DIMM installation or overclocking.
  • The stability and compatibility of the installed memory module depend on the installed CPU and devices when overclocking.
  • Please refer www.msi.com for more information on compatible memory.

PCI_E1~3: PCIe Expansion Slots

Important

  • If you install a large and heavy graphics card, you need to use a tool such as MSI Gaming Series Graphics Card Bolster to support its weight to prevent deformation of the slot.

  • For a single PCIe x16 expansion card installation with optimum performance, using the PCI_E1 slot is recommended.

  • When adding or removing expansion cards, always turn off the power supply and unplug the power supply power cable from the power outlet. Read the expansion
    card’s documentation to check for any necessary additional hardware or software changes.

  • PCI_E3 will be unavailable when installing M.2 SSD in M2_2 slot. However, if you want to use both of them simultaneously, you can set x1 for PCI_E3 and set x2 for M2_2 in BIOS.

Important

  • Intel® RST only supports PCIe M.2 SSD with UEFI ROM.
  • Intel® Optane™ Memory Ready for M2_2 slot.

Installing M.2 module

  1. Loosen the screws of M.2 SHIELD FROZR heatsink.

  2. Remove the M.2 SHIELD FROZR and remove the protective films from the thermal pads of heatsink.

  3. Secure the supplied M.2 standoff according to your M.2 SSD length if need.

  4. Insert your M.2 SSD into the M.2 slot at a 30-degree angle.

  5. Secure the M.2 SSD in place with the supplied M.2 8.5H screw.
    Important

  6. Put the M.2 SHIELD FROZR heatsink back in place and secure it. ****

SATA1~6: SATA 6Gb/s Connectors
These connectors are SATA 6Gb/s interface ports. Each connector can connect to one SATA device.

Important

  • Please do not fold the SATA cable at a 90-degree angle. Data loss may result during transmission otherwise.
  • SATA cables have identical plugs on either side of the cable. However, it is recommended that the flat connector be connected to the motherboard for space-saving purposes.
  • SATA2 will be unavailable when installing M.2 SATA SSD in the M2_1 slot.
