• 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 600 W.

•Do not forget to connect the 8-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.

•If you are uncertain about the minimum power supply requirement for your system, refer to the Recommended Power Supply Wattage Calculator at http://support.asus.com/PowerSupplyCalculator/PSCalculator. aspx?SLanguage=en-us for details.

•The ATX 12 V Specification 2.0-compliant (500W) PSU has been tested to support the motherboard power requirements with the following configuration:

CPU: AMD FX-62

Memory 1024 MB DDR2-800 (x4)

Graphics card: PCI Express x16 NVIDIA 7900GTX

Serial ATA device: SATA hard disk drive (x2)

Optical drives: DVD-RW

• We recommend that you connect a high-definition front panel audio module to this connector to avail of the motherboard’s high-definition audio capability.

•If you want to connect a high-definition front panel audio module to this connector, set the Front Panel Support Type item in the BIOS setup to [HD Audio]; if you want to connect an AC'97 front panel audio module to this connector, set the item to [AC97]. By default, this connector is set to [HD Audio]. See section 4.4.5 Onboard Devices Configuration for details.
