							OC1: GAME BOOST Knob 
This knob allows you to manually select a stage from number 0 (default)\
 to number 
11 (extreme) for overclocking your CPU. The CPU’s voltage and frequ\
ency will be 
automatically adjusted after you power on your computer.
0  1  2  4  6  8   1011
Using GAME BOOST Knob
To setup the GAME BOOST knob, take the following steps:
1.
Make sure the GAME BOOST is controlled by hardware. There are two GAME
BOOST LED indicators next to the GAME BOOST Knob. The red LED indicates
the GAME BOOST is controlled by hardware and the green by software. You \
can
switch between hardware and software in BIOS Setup.
2.
Power off.
3.
Rotate the GAME BOOST knob to select the overclocking stage as you desir\
e.
The higher the number, the higher the CPU frequency.
4.
Power on and then GAME BOOST will automatically overclock CPU depending
on the stage you selected.
To disable GAME BOOST:
1.
Make sure the GAME BOOST is controlled by hardware.
2.
Power off.
3.
Rotate the GAME BOOST knob to 0 and then power on. The configuration
parameters will be returned to its normal values.
 Important
●You can also control the GAME BOOST function in BIOS Setup or with MSICOMMAND CENTER  software.
●In order to optimize performance and improve system stability, when you \
activatethe GAME BOOST function, please leave the settings in the  BIOS > OC menuunchanged.
●The success of overclocking depends on the components of your computer.
●We do not guarantee the GAME BOOST overclocking range or the damages/ris\
kscaused by overclocking behavior.
●MSI components are recommended for better compatibility when using GAMEBOOST function.

Charger Port
The JUSB4  (red mark) connector is a charger port which can increase 
USB power output for fast charging your smartphone or USB-powered 
devices. The Charger Port is hardware controlled by motherboard 
chip, it can still charge your device in suspend, hibernate state or 
even shutdown states. However, when you boot the computer into 
Windows
®, you will need to install the MSI® SUPER CHARGER 
application to turn ON/OFF the Charging mode.
 Important
When the Charging mode is enabled, the Charge Port data syncing will be \
disabled.

							CPUFAN1~2, SYSFAN1~3: Fan Connectors
Fan connectors can be classified as PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) Mode \
and 
Voltage Mode. PWM Mode fan connectors provide constant 12V output and ad\
just fan 
speed with speed control signal. Voltage Mode fan connectors control fan\
 speed by 
changing voltage. Therefore, when you plug a 3-pin (Non-PWM) fan to a \
PWM Mode 
fan connector, the fan speed will be always maintained at 100%, and that\
 could be 
noisy.

Controlling the fan speed
There are two ways to manage fan speed. One is to go to  BIOS >  HARDWARE 
MONITOR. The other is to use COMMAND CENTER application.
BIOS > HARDWARE MONITOR COMMAND CENTER
Both methods offer gradient points of the fan speed that allow you to ad\
just fan speed 
in relation to CPU temperature.
