3-4 Motherboard Installation

All motherboards have standard mounting holes to fit different types of chassis. Make sure that the locations of all the mounting holes for both motherboard and chassis match. Although a chassis may have both plastic and metal mounting fas- teners, metal ones are highly recommended because they ground the motherboard to the chassis. Make sure that the metal standoffs click in or are screwed in tightly. Then use a screwdriver to secure the motherboard onto the motherboard tray.

Tools Needed

Philips Screwdriver

Pan head screws (9 pieces)

Standoffs (9 pieces, if needed)

Location of Mounting Holes

There are nine (9) mounting holes on this motherboard indicated by the arrows.

X8DTU-6F+

Caution: 1) To avoid damaging the motherboard and its components, please do not use a force greater than 8 lb/inch on each mounting screw when installing the motherboard. 2) Some components are very close to the mounting holes. Please take precautionary measures to avoid damag- ing the components during motherboard installation.
