Intel Desktop Board DX58SO Product Guide

Connecting Power Supply Cables

Figure 30 shows the location of the power connectors.

CAUTION

Failure to use an appropriate power supply and/or not connecting the 12 V (Figure 30, A) power connector to the Desktop Board may result in damage to the board or the system may not function properly.

The 2 x 12 pin main power connector (Figure 30, D) is backwards compatible with ATX12V power supplies with 2 x 10 connectors. Use of the 1 x 4 auxiliary PCI Express graphics power connector (Figure 30, C) or the SATA-style auxiliary power connector (Figure 30, B) is required with ATX12V power supplies when using PCI Express graphics cards that can consume up to 75 W.
