Asus Motherboard P5NT WS Product Manual page 55

• For a fully configured system, we recommend that you use a power supply
unit (PSU) that complies with ATX 12 V Specification 2.0 (or later version)
and provides a minimum power of 550 W.
• Do not forget to connect the 4-pin/8pin EATX12V power plug; otherwise,
the system will not boot.
• Make sure to connect the EZ Plug™ when using PCI Express graphics
cards and a 20-pin ATX power supply unit; otherwise, the system may
become unstable.
• Use of a PSU with a higher power output is recommended when configuring
a system with more power-consuming devices. The system may become
unstable or may not boot up if the power is inadequate.
• If you want to use two high-end PCI Express x16 cards, use a PSU with
500 W to 600 W power or above to ensure the system stability.
• The ATX 12 V Specification 2.0-compliant (500 W) PSU has been tested to
support the motherboard power requirement with the following configuration:
CPU
DDR800
VGA
SATA-HD
ESATA-HD
IDE-HD
CD-ROM
USB
PCI
• If you want to use two EN7950GX2 graphics cards, visit the NVIDIA website
(www.nvidia.com) for the qualified PSU vendor list.
