Read the following guidelines before connecting external devices:
• First make sure your devices are compliant with the connectors you wish to connect.
• Before installing the devices, be sure to turn off the devices and your computer. Unplug the
power cord from the power outlet to prevent damage to the devices.
• After installing the device and before turning on the computer, make sure the device cable has
been securely attached to the connector on the motherboard.

- 23 hardware installation 23
- High power consumption be used 500w or greater if a power supply is used that does not provide the required power the result can lead to an unstable or unbootable system 23
- Manufacturer when using an intel extreme edition cpu 130w to meet expansion requirements it is recommended that a power supply that can withstand 23
- Use of a power supply providing a 2x4 12v power connector is recommended by the cpu 23
- With the use of the power connector the power supply can supply enough stable power to all the com ponents on the motherboard before connecting the power connector first make sure the power supply is turned off and all devices are properly installed the power connector possesses a foolproof design connect the power supply cable to the power connector in the correct orientation the 12v power con nector mainly supplies power to the cpu if the 12v power connector is not connected the computer will not start 23
- 4 5 cpu_fan sys_fan1 sys_fan2 pwr_fan fan headers 24
