8. ATX power connectors (24-pin EATXPWR; 8-pin EATX12V_1; 8-pin EATX12V_2;
4-pin EZ_PLUG)
These connectors are for ATX power supply plugs. The power supply plugs are
designed to fit these connectors in only one orientation. Find the proper orientation and
push down firmly until the connectors completely fit.
• 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 350 W.
• Do not forget to connect the 8-pin EATX12V power plug. Otherwise, the system will
not boot.
• We recommend that you use a PSU with a 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.
• If you want to use two or more high-end PCIe x16 cards, use a PSU with 1000W
power or above to ensure the system stability.
