PWR2 is the 8-pin ATX 12V power connector used to provide power to the CPU. Align the
pins to the connector and press firmly until seated.

It is

strongly recommended that you use an 8-pin ATX

12V power supply; however, if you have a four-pin power
supply, plug the connector to pins 1, 2, 5, and 6 as shown.

Auxiliary Power for Graphics (PWR3)

power for the graphics card provides better graphics performance.
