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 EATX12V1/EATX12V2 power plugs. 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 PCI Express x16 cards, use a PSU with
1000W power or above to ensure the system stability, and recommend connecting the
6-pin EATX12V3 power plug.
