Important notes on the Motherboard Power Requirements
Note!
!
Make sure that your ATX 12 V power supply can provide 8A on the
+12 V lead and at least 1A on the +5-volt standby lead (+5 VSB).
The minimum recommended wattage is 230 W, or 300 W for a fully
configured system. The system can become unstable and might
experience difficulty powering up if the power supply is inadequate.
!
You must install a PSU with a higher power rating if you intend to
install additional devices.
