Asus Striker II Formula - Manual (Page 66)

2-38 Chapter 2: Hardware information
• For a fully configured system, we recommend that you use a power supply
unit (PSU) that complies with ATX 12 � Specification 2.0 (or later version)
and provides a minimum power of 400 W.
• Do not forget to connect the 4�pin/8pin �ATX12� power plug; otherwise,
the system will not boot.
• Use of a PSU with a higher power output is recommended 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 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.
• The ATX 12 � Specification 2.0�compliant (400W) PSU has been tested
to support the motherboard power requirements with the following
configuration:
CPU: Intel ® Pentium ® �xtreme 3.73GHz
Memory: 512 MB DDR2 (x4)
Graphics card: ASUS EAX1900XT
Parallel ATA device: IDE hard disk drive
Serial ATA device: SATA hard disk drive (x2)
Optical drive: DVD-RW
• If you want to use two high-end PCI Express x16 cards, use a PSU with
500W to 600W power or above to ensure the system stability.
• If you want to use 3�Way S��I™ configuration, visit the N�IDIA website
(www.nvidia.com) for the qualified PSU vendor list.
10. ATX power connectors (24-pin EATXPWR, 8-pin EATX12V)
These connectors are for ATX power supply plugs. The power supply plugs
are designed to fit these connectors in only one orientation. Find the proper
orientation and push down firmly until the connectors completely fit.
• Make sure to remove the cap on the EATX12V connector before connecting
an 8-pin EPS +12V power plug.
• Use only an 8-pin EPS +12V power plug for the EATX12V connector.
