• Gather all necessary components: Intel DX58SO motherboard, compatible Intel Core i7 processor (LGA1366), DDR3 memory modules, power supply, graphics card(s), storage devices, and a compatible ATX case.
• Refer to your case manual for specific mounting instructions.

2.2. Motherboard орнотуу

1. Ишти даярдоо: Компьютериңиздин корпусунун арткы тешигине I/O калкан орнотуңуз.
2. Standoffs орнотуу: Securely install the appropriate standoffs in your case that align with the screw holes on the motherboard.
3. Motherboard орнотуу: Carefully place the motherboard onto the standoffs, ensuring the I/O ports align with the I/O shield. Secure the motherboard with screws.
4. CPU орнотуу: Open the CPU socket lever. Align the triangular mark on the Intel Core i7 processor with the mark on the LGA1366 socket. Gently place the CPU into the socket. Close the lever to secure the CPU.
5. CPU Cooler орнотуу: Термикалык пастаны сүйкөңүз (эгер алдын ала сүйкөлбөсө) жана процессордун муздаткычын өндүрүүчүнүн көрсөтмөлөрүнө ылайык орнотуңуз. Процессордун желдеткич кабелин энелик платадагы CPU_FAN колонкасына туташтырыңыз.
6. Эстутум орнотуу: Open the clips on the DDR3 DIMM slots. Align the notch on the memory module with the key in the slot. Press firmly on both ends of the module until the clips snap into place. For triple-channel operation, install modules in matching colored slots (e.g., blue slots).

2.3. Component Connections

• Кубат туташуулары: Connect the 24-pin ATX main power connector and the 4-pin or 8-pin ATX 12V power connector from your power supply to the corresponding headers on the motherboard. Ensure both are securely seated to prevent damage.
• Графикалык карта(лар): Insert your PCI Express graphics card(s) into the PCIe 2.0 x16 slots. For SLI or CrossFireX, install multiple cards as per their respective guidelines and connect the necessary bridge.
• Сактагыч түзмөктөр: Connect your SATA hard drives and optical drives to the SATA 3.0 Gbit/s ports using SATA data cables. Connect power from your power supply to these devices.
• Алдыңкы панелдин туташтыргычтары: Connect the power button, reset button, HDD LED, power LED, and front panel USB/audio headers from your case to the corresponding pins on the motherboard. Refer to the motherboard's silkscreen labels for correct orientation.
• Перифериялык байланыштар: Connect any additional USB devices, IEEE-1394a devices, or audio peripherals to the available ports.

3. Системаны иштетүү

3.1. BIOS конфигурациясы

Upon first boot, you may need to enter the BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) to configure settings. Typically, you can access the BIOS by pressing the DEL or F2 key during startup. In the BIOS, you can set boot order, adjust system time, and configure various hardware parameters.

3.2. Intel Desktop Control Center

The Intel Desktop Control Center is a utility designed to help you optimize and monitor your system's performance. It allows for automatic tuning of processor, memory, and bus speeds for stability and performance. You can also monitor system temperatures, voltages, and fan speeds. Install this software from the Intel support website or the included driver disc for full functionality.

3.3. Multi-GPU Setup (SLI/CrossFireX)

To utilize the multi-GPU capabilities (NVIDIA SLI or ATI CrossFireX), ensure your graphics cards are properly installed and connected with the appropriate bridge. Install the latest drivers for your graphics cards from the manufacturer's website. The graphics driver software will typically provide options to enable and configure the multi-GPU mode.
