with your expansion card.
Always turn off the computer and unplug the power cord from the power outlet before installing an
expansion card to prevent hardware damage.

- An AMD Dual Graphics technology-supported motherboard (with the BIOS updated to the latest version)
and correct driver (make sure the onboard graphics driver version is Rev. 8.982 or above)
- An AMD Radeon
HD 6000 series graphics card that supports AMD Dual Graphics technology (for more
details, please visit AMD's ofcial website) and correct driver
B.InstallingtheGraphicsCardsandConguringBIOSSetup
Step 1:
Observe the steps in "1-5 Installing an Expansion Card" and install an AMD Dual Graphics technology-supported
graphics card on the PCIEX16 slot. Plug the monitor cable into the graphics card and start up your computer.
Step 2:
Enter BIOS Setup to set the following items under the Peripherals\GFXConguration menu:
- Set Integrated Graphics to Force.
- Set UMA Frame Buffer Size to 512M or above.
Save the settings and exit BIOS Setup. Restart your computer.
C.ConguringtheGraphicsDriver
After installing the graphics card driver in the operating system, go to the AMDVISIONEngineControlCenter.
Browse to Performance\AMD Radeon
Dual Graphics and ensure the Enable AMD Radeon Dual Graphics
check box is selected.
(Note) Make sure the drivers for the Chipset, onboard graphics, and external graphics card are properly
installed.
DualChannelMemoryConguration
This motherboard provides four DDR3 memory sockets and supports Dual Channel Technology. After the
memory is installed, the BIOS will automatically detect the specications and capacity of the memory. Enabling
Dual Channel memory mode will double the original memory bandwidth.
The four DDR3 memory sockets are divided into two channels and each channel has one memory socket as
following:
Channel A: DDR3_2, DDR3_4
Channel B: DDR3_1, DDR3_3
Due to APU limitations, read the following guidelines before installing the memory in Dual Channel mode.
1. Dual Channel mode cannot be enabled if only one DDR3 memory module is installed.
2. When enabling Dual Channel mode with two or four memory modules, it is recommended that memory
of the same capacity, brand, speed, and chips be used and installed in the same colored DDR3
sockets. For optimum performance, when enabling Dual Channel mode with two memory modules,
we recommend that you install them in the DDR3_1 and DDR3_2 sockets.
