Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before installation, ensure your PC case supports standard ATX motherboards and has sufficient clearance for the board's heatsink profile. Installation requires an AMD Socket AM5 processor and DDR5 RAM modules; this board is not compatible with DDR4. When installing M.2 drives, use the provided thermal pads in the M.2 heatsinks to prevent throttling. Regularly update your BIOS through the ASUS website to ensure compatibility with new CPU microcode. When cleaning the board, use a can of compressed air to remove dust from the heatsink fins and PCIe slots, ensuring the system remains cool. Never use liquid cleaners directly on the PCB.
