How to Install Asus Prime B760M-A D4

Follow these steps to assemble a stable, high-performance system with the Asus Prime B760M-A D4:

• Step 1: Prepare your workspace and components. Ensure you have a compatible power supply, the 24-pin ATX and 8-pin CPU power connectors, a compatible CPU, and DDR4 memory ready for installation.
• Step 2: Install the CPU into the LGA 1700 socket. Open the socket lever, align the notch on the processor with the corresponding markings on the motherboard, seat the CPU firmly, and re-secure the lever.
• Step 3: Install memory modules. Open the DDR4 DIMM slots, orient the sticks correctly, and firmly press until the latches click into place. Use the board’s recommended slots if you plan to run in dual-channel mode for optimal performance.
• Step 4: Mount the motherboard in your case. Use the included standoffs to align with the chassis, then secure the motherboard with screws. Route and connect chassis power, CPU power, front panel connectors, USB headers, and audio cables as indicated in the motherboard manual.
• Step 5: Install storage devices. Insert NVMe SSDs into the M.2 slots and secure with screws; connect SATA drives to the SATA ports as needed. Attach cooling solutions to M.2 drives if your board requires it.
• Step 6: Install expansion cards and connect peripherals. Install a discrete GPU into the PCIe x16 slot, secure with screws, and connect PCIe power if required. Attach any additional PCIe cards in the remaining slots and connect USB peripherals, network cables, and audio devices.
• Step 7: Configure BIOS and software. Power on the system and enter the BIOS/UEFI to set boot order, enable XMP/DOCP profiles for memory, and configure fan curves for optimal cooling. Save settings and reboot to install your operating system and drivers.
