Totals for Model 744 board computer ________ ________
1. Does not include on-board graphics, if installed.
2. On-board graphics and graphics accessory cards are each separate graphics subsystems.
3. PMC cards may also draw +3.3 current that is provided through the +5 on the bridge adapter.
The +3.3 current FOR ALL PMC CARDS ON THE BRIDGE ADAPTER AND EXPANSION
ADAPTER (do not include other expansion adapter currents) must be entered into the +5 column
after multiplying the +3.3 current by .75 to convert to the actual +5 current draw.
