Intel Desktop Board DP55KG Technical Product Specification 2.2.2.3 Power Supply Connectors The board has the following power supply connectors: • Main power - a 2 x 12 connector. This connector is compatible with 2 x 10 connectors previously used on Intel Desktop boards. The board supports the use of ATX12V power supplies with either 2 x 10 or 2 x 12 main power cables. When using a power supply with a 2 x 10 main power cable, attach that cable on the rightmost pins of the main power connector, leaving pins 11, 12, 23, and 24 unconnected. • Processor core power - a 2 x 4 connector. This connector provides power directly to the processor voltage regulator and must always be used. Failure to do so will prevent the board from booting. • Auxiliary PCI Express graphics power connector (SATA style) - this connector provides the required additional power when using high power (75 W or greater) add-in cards in either or both the PCI Express x16 and the PCI Express x8 bus add-in card connectors. See Figure 1 for location. CAUTION If high power (75 W or greater) add-in cards are installed in either or both the Secondary PCI Express x16 and the PCI Express x4 bus add-in card connectors, the Auxiliary PCI Express graphics power connector must be used. Failure to do so may cause damage to the board and the add-in cards. Table 15.

2.2.2.3
Power Supply Connectors
The board has the following power supply connectors:
Main power
– a 2 x 12 connector.
This connector is compatible with 2 x 10
connectors previously used on Intel Desktop boards.
The board supports the use
of ATX12V power supplies with either 2 x 10 or 2 x 12 main power cables.
When
using a power supply with a 2 x 10 main power cable, attach that cable on the
rightmost pins of the main power connector, leaving pins 11, 12, 23, and
24 unconnected.
Processor core power
– a 2 x 4 connector.
This connector provides power
directly to the processor voltage regulator and must always be used.
Failure to do
so will prevent the board from booting.
Auxiliary PCI Express graphics power connector (SATA style) –
this
connector provides the required additional power when using high power (75 W or
greater) add-in cards in either or both the PCI Express x16 and the PCI Express x8
bus add-in card connectors. See Figure 1 for location.
CAUTION
If high power (75 W or greater) add-in cards are installed in either or both the
Secondary PCI Express x16 and the PCI Express x4 bus add-in card connectors, the
Auxiliary PCI Express graphics power connector must be used.
Failure to do so may
cause damage to the board and the add-in cards.
