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

•DO NOT forget to connect the 4-pin ATX12V power plug. Otherwise, the system will not boot.

•We recommend that you use a PSU with a higher power output when configuring a system with more power-consuming devices or when you intend to install additional 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.
