ATX power connectors (20-pin ATXPWR1, 4-pin ATX12V1) These connectors connect to an ATX 12V power supply. The plugs from the power supply are designed to fit these connectors in only one orientation. Find the proper orientation and push down firmly until the connectors completely fit. In addition to the 20-pin ATXPWR1 connector, this motherboard requires that you connect the 4-pin ATX +12V power plug to provide sufficient power to the CPU. • Do not forget to connect the 4-pin ATX +12V power plug. Otherwise, the system will not boot up. • Make sure that your ATX 12V power supply can provide 8A on the +12V lead and at least 1A on the +5-volt standby lead (+5VSB). The minimum recommended wattage is 230W, or 300W for a fully configured system. The system may become unstable and may experience difficulty powering up if the power supply is inadequate. ® P4P8X SE ATXPWR1 +3.3VDC -12.0VDC COM PS_ON# COM COM COM -5.0VDC +5.0VDC +5.0VDC +3.3VDC +3.3VDC COM +5.0VDC COM +5.0VDC COM PWR_OK +5VSB +12.0VDC P4P8X SE ATX Power Connector ATX12V1 +12V DC GND +12V DC GND 1-24 Chapter 1: Product introduction
