Refer to the PSU documentation for dual VGA power requirements. • For a fully configured system, we recommend that you use a power supply unit (PSU) that complies with ATX 12 V Specification 2.0 (or later version) and provides a minimum power of 350 W. • Do not forget to connect the 8-pin/4-pin ATX12 V power plug; otherwise, the system will not boot up. • 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. ASUS P5LD2 Deluxe 2-33
