With the use of the power connector, the power supply can supply enough stable power to all the
componentsonthemotherboard.Beforeconnectingthepowerconnector,rstmakesurethepower
supply is turned off and all devices are properly installed. The power connector possesses a foolproof
design. Connect the power supply cable to the power connector in the correct orientation.
The 12V power connector mainly supplies power to the CPU. If the 12V power connector is not connected,
the computer will not start.
To meet expansion requirements, it is recommended that a power supply that can withstand high
power consumption be used (500W or greater). If a power supply is used that does not provide
the required power, the result can lead to an unstable or unbootable system.

18) BAT (Battery)
Thebatteryprovidespowertokeepthevalues(suchasBIOScongurations,date,andtimeinformation)
in the CMOS when the computer is turned off. Replace the battery when the battery voltage drops to a
low level, or the CMOS values may not be accurate or may be lost.
19) CPU/DRAM/VGA/BOOT (Status LEDs)
The status LEDs show whether the CPU, memory, graphics card, and operating system are working
properly after system power-on. If the CPU/DRAM/VGA LED is on, that means the corresponding device
is not working normally; if the BOOT LED is on, that means you haven't entered the operating system
yet.
You may clear the CMOS values by removing the battery:
1. Turn off your computer and unplug the power cord.
2. Gently remove the battery from the battery holder and wait for one minute. (Or use a
metal object like a screwdriver to touch the positive and negative terminals of the battery
holder, making them short for 5 seconds.)
3. Replace the battery.
4. Plug in the power cord and restart your computer.
•Always turn off your computer and unplug the power cord before replacing the battery.
•Replace the battery with an equivalent one. Damage to your devices may occur if the battery
is replaced with an incorrect model.
•Contact the place of purchase or local dealer if you are not able to replace the battery by
yourself or uncertain about the battery model.
•When installing the battery, note the orientation of the positive side (+) and the negative side
(-) of the battery (the positive side should face up).
•Used batteries must be handled in accordance with local environmental regulations.

BIOS (Basic Input and Output System) records hardware parameters of the system in the CMOS on the
motherboard. Its major functions include conducting the Power-On Self-Test (POST) during system startup,
saving system parameters and loading operating system, etc. BIOS includes a BIOS Setup program that allows
theusertomodifybasicsystemcongurationsettingsortoactivatecertainsystemfeatures.
When the power is turned off, the battery on the motherboard supplies the necessary power to the CMOS to
keepthecongurationvaluesintheCMOS.
To access the BIOS Setup program, press the <Delete> key during the POST when the power is turned on.
To upgrade the BIOS, use either the GIGABYTE Q-Flash or @BIOS utility.
•Q-Flash allows the user to quickly and easily upgrade or back up BIOS without entering the operating
system.
•@BIOS is a Windows-based utility that searches and downloads the latest version of BIOS from the
Internet and updates the BIOS.

•It is recommended that you not alter the default settings (unless you need to) to prevent system
instability or other unexpected results. Inadequately altering the settings may result in system's
failure to boot. If this occurs, try to clear the CMOS values and reset the board to default values.
(Refer to the "Load Optimized Defaults" section in this chapter or introductions of the battery/

1. Intel® Optane™ memory.
2. The Optane™ memory must have at least 16 GB capacity, and it must have equal or smaller capacity than
the hard drive/SSD to be accelerated.
3. The Optane™ memory cannot be used to accelerate an existing RAID array; the accelerated hard drive/
SSD cannot be included in a RAID array.
4. The hard drive/SSD to be accelerated must be a SATA hard drive or M.2 SATA SSD.
5. The hard drive/SSD to be accelerated can be a system drive or data drive. The system drive must be
GPT formatted and have Windows 10 64-bit (or later version) installed on it. The data drive must also be
GPT formatted.
6. The motherboard driver disc.
7. The SATA controller must set in Intel RST Premium With Intel Optane System Acceleration mode.
A-2. Installation Guidelines
1. Go to Settings\IOPorts\SATAAndRSTConguration and make sure RST Control PCIe Storage
Devices is set to Manual. Then depending on which M.2 connector you install the Optane™ memory in,
set the corresponding PCIe Storage Dev on Port XX item to RST Controlled.
