Audio 7.1-channel Configuration
To configure 7.1-channel audio, you have to connect front audio I/O module to
JAUD1 connector and follow the below steps.
-
Click on the Realtek HD Audio Manager > Advanced Settings to open the dialog below.
-
Select Mute the rear output device, when a front headphone plugged in.
-
Plug your speakers to audio jacks on rear and front I/O panel. When you plug into a device at an audio jack, a dialogue window will pop up asking you which device is current connected.
Overview of Components
- Distance from the center of the CPU to the nearest DIMM slot.
CPU Socket
Please install the CPU into the CPU socket as shown below.
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 the 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.
DIMM Slots
Please install the memory module into the DIMM slot as shown below.
Important
- 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 operates 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 marked or at a higher frequency.
- It is recommended to use a more efficient memory cooling system for full DIMMs installation or overclocking.
- The stability and compatibility of installed memory module depend on installed CPU and devices when overclocking.
- Please refer to www.msi.com for more information on compatible memory.
M2_1: M.2 Slot (Key M)
Please install the M.2 device into the M.2_1 slot as shown below.
M2_2: M.2 Slot (Key E)
Please install the Wi-Fi module into M.2_2 slot as shown below.
PCI_E1~2: PCIe Expansion Slots
Important
- 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.
- 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.
SATA1~4: 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 sides of the cable. However, it is recommended that the flat connector be connected to the motherboard for space saving purposes.
- SATA1 will be unavailable when installing M.2 SATA SSD in the M2_1 slot.
JAUD1: Front Audio Connector
This connector allows you to connect audio jacks on the front panel.
JFP1, JFP2: Front Panel Connectors
These connectors connect to the switches and LEDs on the front panel.
ATX_PWR1, CPU_PWR1: Power Connectors
These connectors allow you to connect an ATX power supply.
Important
Make sure that all the power cables are securely connected to a proper ATX
power supply to ensure stable operation of the motherboard.
JUSB1: USB 2.0 Connector
This connector allows you to connect USB 2.0 ports on the front panel.
Important
- Note that the VCC and Ground pins must be connected correctly to avoid possible damage.
- In order to recharge your iPad, iPhone and iPod through USB ports, please install MSI® Center utility.
JUSB2: USB 3.2 Gen 1 5Gbps Connector
This connector allows you to connect USB 3.2 Gen 1 5Gbps ports on the front panel.
Important
Note that the Power and Ground pins must be connected correctly to avoid
possible damage.
CPU_FAN1, SYS_FAN1: Fan Connectors
PWM Mode fan connectors provide constant 12V output and adjust fan speed with speed control signal. When you plug a 3-pin (Non-PWM) fan to a fan connector in PWM mode, the fan speed will always maintain at 100%, which might create a lot of noise.

UEFI BIOS
MSI UEFI BIOS is compatible with UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface) architecture. UEFI has many new functions and advantages that traditional BIOS cannot achieve, and it will completely replace BIOS in the future. The MSI UEFI BIOS uses UEFI as the default boot mode to take full advantage of the new chipset’s capabilities.
Important
The term BIOS in this user guide refers to UEFI BIOS unless otherwise
noted.
UEFI Advantages
- Fast booting – UEFI can directly boot the operating system and save the BIOS self-test process. And also eliminates the time to switch to CSM mode during POST.
- Supports for hard drive partitions larger than 2 TB.
- Supports more than 4 primary partitions with a GUID Partition Table (GPT).
- Supports unlimited number of partitions.
- Supports full capabilities of new devices – new devices may not provide backward compatibility.
- Supports secure startup – UEFI can check the validity of the operating system to ensure that no malware tampers with the startup process.
Incompatible UEFI Cases
- 32-bit Windows operating system – this motherboard supports only 64-bit Windows 10 operating system.
- Older graphics card – the system will detect your graphics card. When display a warning message There is no GOP (Graphics Output protocol) support detected in this graphics card.
Important
We recommend that you to replace with a GOP/UEFI compatible graphics card
or using integrated graphics from CPU for having normal function.
How to check the BIOS mode?
