| Firmware and validation | Use only firmware for this exact model and revision. Confirm the selected CPU in the manufacturer CPU support table and satisfy its stated minimum BIOS; consult the board manual and memory QVL for DIMM placement, shared lanes and port limitations. |
Compatibility and revision notes
ATX (305 × 244 mm). Use the ASUS CPU support list and minimum BIOS for the exact processor; do not infer compatibility from LGA1155 fit alone. The board is DDR3-only. Check the manual for PCIe sharing, SATA controller assignments, power connectors, memory population and chassis clearance.
Physical socket fit, chipset family or a matching module notch does not independently guarantee compatibility. Confirm the exact CPU, BIOS release, memory type/capacity, slot wiring, device protocol and board dimensions in the manufacturer documentation before building or servicing a system.
Preservation and repair
Record the full PCB model, revision and BIOS identifier before maintenance. Inspect socket contacts, DIMM/PCIe connectors, VRM area and electrolytic components; document any corrosion, rework or missing hardware. Use ESD-safe handling and follow the manual’s clear-CMOS procedure.
For an archive record, photograph labels and connector condition before cleaning. Do not cross-flash firmware from a similar model or revision, and never power a board with loose conductive hardware beneath it.
