M2N-MX SE PLUS ATX Power Connector
1-30
We recommend that you use an ATX 12 V Specification 2.0-compliant
power supply unit (PSU) with a minimum of 300 W power rating. This PSU
type has 24-pin and 4-pin power plugs.
If you intend to use a PSU with 20-pin and 4-pin power plugs, make sure
that the 20-pin power plug can provide at least 15 A on +12 V and that
the PSU has a minimum power rating of 300 W. The system may become
unstable or may not boot up if the power is inadequate.
Do not forget to connect the 4-pin ATX +12 V power plug; otherwise, the
system will not boot up.
We recommend that you use a PSU with higher power output when
configuring a system with more power-consuming devices. The system
may become unstable or may not boot up if the power is inadequate.
You must install a PSU with a higher power rating if you intend to install
additional devices.
