• For a fully-configured system, we recommend that you use a power supply unit (PSU) that complies with ATX 12 V Specification 2.0 (or later version) and provides a minimum power of 400 W.

Do not forget to connect the 4-pin ATX +12 V power plug; otherwise, the system will not boot up.

The ATX 12 V Specification 2.0 compliant (500 W) PSU has been tested to support the below configuration:

CPU:

AMD FX-62

Memory:

512 MB DDR (x4)

Graphics card:

PCI Express x16 ATI X850

Hard disk:

SATA HD (x2)

ATAPI:

CD-ROM (x1)

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.

If you want to use the ATI CrossFire™ Graphics solution, use a PSU with 500 ~ 600 W power to ensure system stability.

7 . IEEE 1394a connector (10-1 pin IE1394_2)

This connector is for the IEEE 1394a port. Connect the IEEE 1394a module cable to this connector, then install the module to a slot opening at the back of the system chassis.

NEVER connect a USB cable to the IEEE 1394a connector. Doing so will damage the motherboard!

The IEEE 1394a module cable is purchased separately.
