Power Connections

This motherboard requires an ATX power supply. To support a PCI Express motherboard
with the addition of dual graphics cards using NVIDIA SLI technology, you are going to
need a minimum of a 500W power supply. Make sure you have enough power to cover
all the expansion cards you will be installing. To determine what you power requirements
are for your specific configuration, refer to www.slizone.com.

24-pin ATX Power (PWR1)

PWR1 is the main power supply connector located along the edge of the board next to
the DIMM slots. Make sure that the power supply cable and pins are properly aligned
with the connector on the motherboard. Firmly plug the power supply cable into the
connector and make sure it is secure.
