• Use an anti-static wrist strap or frequently touch a grounded metal object to discharge static electricity.
• Sujete os compoñentes polos bordos para evitar tocar as partes sensibles.

3.2 Instalación da placa base

1. Preparar o chasis: Install the I/O shield into the chassis opening. Ensure the motherboard standoffs are correctly aligned with the screw holes on the motherboard.
2. Instalar a CPU: Carefully open the CPU socket (LGA 1151) lever. Align the CPU (6th Gen Intel Processors) with the socket, ensuring the notches match. Gently place the CPU into the socket without forcing it. Close the lever to secure the CPU.
3. Instalar o refrigerador da CPU: Apply thermal paste (if not pre-applied) and install the CPU cooler according to its manufacturer's instructions. Connect the CPU fan cable to the designated header on the motherboard.
4. Instalar módulos de memoria: Open the clips on the DDR4 DIMM slots. Align the memory modules with the slots, ensuring the notch on the module matches the key in the slot. Press down firmly on both ends until the clips snap into place.
5. Montar a placa base: Carefully place the motherboard into the chassis, aligning it with the standoffs and I/O shield. Secure the motherboard with screws.
6. Conectar os cables de alimentación: Conecta o conector de alimentación ATX de 24 pines e o conector de alimentación da CPU de 4 pines da fonte de alimentación á placa base.
7. Conectar dispositivos de almacenamento: Use the provided Serial ATA 6.0Gb/s cables to connect your storage drives (HDDs/SSDs) to the SATA ports on the motherboard.
8. Conectar os cables do panel frontal: Connect the chassis's front panel connectors (power button, reset button, USB ports, audio jacks, LED indicators) to the corresponding headers on the motherboard. Refer to the user's manual for header locations.
9. Instalar tarxetas de expansión: If applicable, install any PCIe expansion cards (e.g., graphics card) into the available PCIe slot.

4. Instrucións de funcionamento

4.1 Primeiro arranque e configuración da BIOS

Upon the first power-on, the system will typically enter the UEFI BIOS utility. Here you can configure system settings, boot order, and monitor hardware status. Press the Eliminar key during startup to enter the BIOS setup. The ASUS UEFI BIOS with EZ Flash 3 provides an intuitive interface for these configurations.

• Boot Device Priority: Set the primary boot device (e.g., USB drive for OS installation, SSD/HDD).
• System Time/Date: Adjust the system clock if necessary.
• Control do ventilador: Utilize Fan Xpert 2+ settings within the BIOS to customize fan speeds for optimal cooling and noise levels.
• Gardar e saír: Always save your changes before exiting the BIOS.

4.2 Instalación do sistema operativo e dos controladores

After configuring the BIOS, proceed with installing your preferred operating system. Once the OS is installed, install the necessary drivers for the motherboard components. These drivers are typically found on the ASUS support website for your specific model (H110I-PLUS/CSM).

• Controladores de chipsets: Essential for proper communication between the CPU and other components.
• Controladores de audio: Para a funcionalidade do son.
• Controladores LAN: Para a conectividade de rede.
• Controladores gráficos: If using integrated graphics, or for any dedicated graphics card.

5. Mantemento

Un mantemento regular axuda a garantir a lonxevidade e o rendemento óptimo da placa base e do sistema.

• Eliminación de po: Periodically clean dust from inside your computer case, especially from fans and heatsinks, using compressed air. Ensure the system is powered off and unplugged before cleaning.
