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 500W to 600W 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. • The ATX 12 V Specification 2.0-compliant (400W) PSU has been tested to support the motherboard power requirements with the following configuration: CPU: Intel® Pentium® Extreme 3.73GHz Memory: 512 MB DDR3 (x4) Graphics card: ASUS EAX1900XT Parallel ATA device: IDE hard disk drive Serial ATA device: SATA hard disk drive (x2) Optical drive: DVD-RW 2-32 Chapter 2: Hardware information
