Figure 15. Example Dual Channel Memory Configuration with Two DIMMs If additional memory is to be used, install another matched pair of DIMMs (see Figure 16) in the black socket of channel A (DIMM 3) and channel B (DIMM 4). Installing and Replacing Desktop Board Components Figure 16. Example Dual Channel Memory Configuration with Four DIMMs Three DIMMs If you want to use three DIMMs in a dual-channel configuration, install a matched pair of DIMMs equal in speed and size in DIMM 1 and DIMM 3 of channel A. Then install another DIMM equal to the speed and total size of the DIMMs installed in channel A in either DIMM 2 or DIMM 4 of channel B (Figure 17). Figure 17. Example Dual Channel Memory Configuration with Three DIMMs NOTE All other memory configurations will result in single channel memory operation. Intel Desktop Board DZ68ZV Product Guide Installing DIMMs To make sure you have the correct DIMM, place it on the illustration of the DDR3 DIMM in Figure 18. All the notches should match with the DDR3 DIMM. Figure 18. Use DDR3 DIMMs Installing and Replacing Desktop Board Components NOTE For best memory performance, install memory in the blue DIMM sockets first. To install a DIMM, follow these steps: 1. Observe the precautions in "Before You Begin" on page 31. 2. Turn off all peripheral devices connected to the computer. Turn off the computer and disconnect the AC power cord. 3. Remove the computer’s cover and locate the DIMM sockets (see Figure 19). Figure 19. Installing a DIMM 4. Make sure the clips at either end of the DIMM socket(s) are pushed outward to the open position. 5. Holding the DIMM by the edges, remove it from its anti-static package. 6. Position the DIMM above the socket. Align the small notch at the bottom edge of the DIMM with the keys in the socket (see inset in Figure 19). 7. Insert the bottom edge of the DIMM into the socket. 8. When the DIMM is inserted, push down on the top edge of the DIMM until the retaining clips snap into place. Make sure the clips are firmly in place. 9. Replace the computer’s cover and reconnect the AC power cord. Intel Desktop Board DZ68ZV Product Guide Removing DIMMs To remove a DIMM, follow these steps: 1. Observe the precautions in "Before You Begin" on page 31. 2. Turn off all peripheral devices connected to the computer. Turn off the computer. 3. Remove the AC power cord from the computer. 4. Remove the computer’s cover. 5. Gently spread the retaining clips at each end of the DIMM socket. The DIMM pops out of the socket. 6. Hold the DIMM by the edges, lift it away from the socket, and store it in an anti-static package. 7. Replace the computer’s cover and reconnect the AC power cord. Installing and Removing PCI Express x16 Graphics Cards Installing a PCI Express x16 Graphics Card CAUTION When installing a PCI Express card, ensure that the card is fully seated in the PCI Express connector before you power on the system. If the card is not fully seated in the connector, an electrical short may result across the connector pins. Depending on the over-current protection of the power supply, certain Desktop Board components and/or traces may be damaged. Installing and Replacing Desktop Board Components Follow these instructions to install a PCI Express x16 graphics card: 1. Observe the precautions in "Before You Begin" on page 31. 2. Place the card in the PCI Express x16 connector (Figure 20, A) and press down on the card until it is completely seated in the connector and the card retention notch on the card snaps into place around the retention mechanism pin on the connector. 3. Secure the card’s metal bracket to the chassis back panel with a screw (Figure 20, B). 4. Connect the monitor cable to the graphics card according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Figure 20. Installing a PCI Express x16 Graphics Card Intel Desktop Board DZ68ZV Product Guide Removing a PCI Express x16 Graphics Card Follow these instructions to remove a PCI Express x16 graphics card from a connector: 1. Observe the precautions in "Before You Begin" on page 31. 2. Remove the screw (Figure 21, A) that secures the card’s metal bracket to the chassis back panel. 3. Push the card ejector lever down using the tip of a pencil or similar tool (Figure 21, B) in the notch. This will release the card from the connector (C). 4. Pull the card straight up to remove it. Figure 21. Removing a PCI Express x16 Graphics Card Installing Linked PCI Express Graphics Cards The Desktop Board supports technology that allows you to install linked PCI Express graphics cards such as NVIDIA* SLI* (Scalable Link Interface) cards. Make sure you use two identical SLI-ready graphics cards that are NVIDIA certified and the latest graphics driver. You can use the connector included with the Desktop Board to connect the two graphics cards together. Visit the NVIDIA zone website (for more information.
