2." " indicates the location of Pin 1. Also, refer to Chapter 2 for detailed infor- mation on the onboard components.

3.When LE1 is on, the onboard power connection is on. Make sure to unplug the power cables before removing or installing components.

4.Slot 4: PCI-E 2.0 x8 is available on the X8DTE/X8DTE-F

5.To avoid possible system overheating, be sure to provide adequate airflow to the system.

Warning: To prevent damage to the power supply or motherboard, please use a power supply that contains a 24-pin and two 8-pin power connec- tors. Be sure to connect these connectors to the 24-pin (JPW1) and the two 8-pin (JPW2, JPW3) power connectors on the motherboard. Failure in doing so will void the manufacturer warranty on your power supply and

motherboard.
