Chapter 1: Product introduction

Chapter 1

For a fully configured system, we recommend that you use a power supply unit

(PSU) that complies with ATX 12V Specification 2.0 (or later version) and provides a

minimum power of 350W.

Do not forget to connect the 4-pin/8-pin EATX 12V 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 high-end PCI Express x16 cards, use a PSU with 1000W power

or above to ensure the system stability.

If you are uncertain about the minimum power supply requirement for your system,

refer to the Recommended Power Supply Wattage Calculator at http://support.asus.

com/PowerSupplyCalculator/PSCalculator.aspx?SLanguage=en-us for details.
