• We recommend that you use an ATX 12V Specication 2.3-compliant power supply
unit (PSU) with a minimum of 300W power rating. This PSU type has 24-pin and 4-pin
power plugs.
• DO NOT forget to connect the 4-pin ATX +12V power plug. Otherwise, the system will

system with more power-consuming devices or when you intend to install additional
devices. The system may become unstable or may not boot up if the power is
inadequate.
• If you are uncertain about the minimum power supply requirement for your system,
