Power Connectors

Use a power supply that complies with the ATX12V Power Supply Design Guide
Version 1.1. An ATX12V power supply unit has a standard 24-pin ATX main
power connector that must be inserted into the 24-pin connector. The 8-pin +12V
power connector enables the delivery of more +12VDC current to the processor’s
Voltage Regulator Module (VRM).

The power connectors from the power supply unit are designed to fit the 24-pin
and 8-pin connectors in only one orientation. Make sure to find the proper orien-
tation before plugging the connectors.

The system board requires a minimum of 300 Watt power supply to operate.
Your system configuration (CPU power, amount of memory, add-in cards, pe-
ripherals, etc.) may exceed the minimum power requirement. To ensure that
adequate power is provided, we strongly recommend that you use a minimum of
400 Watt (or greater) power supply.

Important:
Insufficient power supplied to the system may result in instability or
the add-in boards and peripherals not functioning properly. Calculating
the system’s approximate power usage is important to ensure that the
power supply meets the system’s consumption requirements.
