connectors completely fit.

• Do not forget to connect the 4-pin ATX +12 V power plug;

otherwise, the system will not boot.

• Use of a PSU with a higher power output is recommended when

configuring a system with more power-consuming devices. The

system may become unstable or may not boot up if the power is

inadequate.

• Make sure that your power supply unit (PSU) can provide at least

the minimum power required by your system.

6. Internal audio connectors (4-pin CD)

These connectors allow you to receive stereo audio input from sound

sources such as a CD-ROM, TV tuner, or MPEG card.

Enable the CD-IN function in the audio utility when using this connector.
