For a fully congured system, we recommend that you use a power supply
unit (PSU) that complies with ATX 12 V Specication 2.0 (or later version)
and provides a minimum power of 400 W.
• Do not forget to connect the 4-pin EATX12V power plug; otherwise, the
system will not boot.
• Use of a PSU with a higher power output is recommended when
conguring a system with more power-consuming devices. The system
may become unstable or may not boot up if the power is inadequate.
• The ATX 12 V Specication 2.0-compliant (400W) PSU has been tested
to support the motherboard power requirements with the following
conguration:
