1. Removing the Athlons Casing
2. Setting your FreeSpeed cards DIP Switches
3. Fitting the FreeSpeed

Now you have your Athlons casing removed and the FreeSpeeds switches have been set to your desired speed and voltage, it's time to fit it.

Plug a spare Power Connector (like the one used on your Hard Disk) into the socket on the FreeSpeed card (if you have no spare power connectors, you can buy a splitter cable for one of your used connectors from any computer store).

The FreeSpeed card now simply slots onto the edge connector on top of your Athlon. Just make sure that the switches face the heatsink/fan side of the Athlon. We have found that it's also easy to still adjust the FreeSpeed while connected to the Athlon. Please double check every change you make to its switches.

Please ensure your PC is turned off while adjusting your FreeSpeeds settings.

Now return to "Setting you FreeSpeed cards DIP Switches" page for further advice on overclocking.
