  • Page 22: Installing The Power Supply

    2.25– Installing the Pow er Supply There are three power connectors on your Thunder i7505 S2665. By default, the Thunder i7505 S2665 requires that you have an EPS12V power supply that has a 24 -pin and an 8-pin power connector. The extra 6-pin AUX power connector is recommended if you plan on using an AGP Pro video card.
  • Page 23: Attaching Ide And Floppy Drive Cables

    Attaching IDE drive cabling is simple. These cables are “keyed” to only allow them to be connected in the correct manner. Tyan motherboards have two on-board IDE channels, each supporting two drives. The black connector designates the Primary channel, while the white connector designates the Secondary channel.
