2.6 Power Supply

2.6.1 ATX 24-pin power connector and CPU 8/4-pin connector

There is one 24-pin power input connection and a 8/4-pin power input connection on the motherboard. The

24-pin power connection is used to connect to the power supply, while the 8/4-pin power connection is

used to power up the CPU. BOTH must be connected in order for the system to boot up. Make sure the

plugs are inserted into the connectors properly, to prevent any damage.

Please make sure your power supply can support at least 2 amps standby power for the Advanced

Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) functions.

Make sure the AC adapter is not plugged into the wall outlet during

installation. The electric current could damage the motherboard.

Refer to the following diagram below for the connector locations.
