2.13 Connecting the power supply*
This motherboard requires the following:
ATX power supply, one that conforms to ATX standard 2.01 or better
A minimum of 30+A on the +5V power line*
The clip on the power connector should lock over the tab on the onboard connector. You shouldn’t be able
to plug the power connector in any other way but just to be safe, make sure it looks like Figure 2.4b.
Make certain that you do not miss connecting any of the pins because if you do, you will void your war-
ranty and possibly cause damage to yourself and/or your motherboard when the power is turned on. After
connecting the power, make sure the connector is seated firmly into its socket so it will not become loose
or fall off when the computer is jostled or moved.
This is the CLIP

you install the plug correctly.

When you connect the cable into the

nector, it will make a CLICK noise as
it is installed.
This is normal.
