P190 User’s Manual
P190 – Advanced Super Mid Tower Case
This case comes with the unique Antec dual power supply system, NeoLink™.
Consisting of two power supply units –the NeoLink™ 650P and the NeoLink™ 550S
– the NeoLink™ system has an output 1,200 watts. You will need to connect the
NeoLink™ 650P to your motherboard and graphic card(s), and the NeoLink™ 550S
to your peripheral drives and accessories such as fans or system monitoring/
control devices. Both power supplies come with an on/off switch. Please be
sure to turn both power switches to the ON (I) position before you boot up your
computer for the first time – your computer will not boot with only one of the
NeoLink™ power supplies. Normally, you won’t need to switch to the OFF (O)
position, since the power supply includes a soft on/off feature. This lets you turn
your computer on and off by using the soft switch on your computer case. If
your computer crashes and you can’t shut it down using the soft switch, you can
switch the main power to the OFF (O) position on both power supplies to clear the
fault, then reboot.
Although care has been taken to prevent sharp edges in your Antec case, we
strongly recommend taking your time and the appropriate care when working with
it. Hurried or careless motion and use of excessive force, particularly when working
inside areas you cannot into see clearly, are but a few examples of activity that
should be avoided. Please use reasonable precaution.
