Installing the Motherboard
Connecting Case Components
After you have installed the motherboard into a case, you can begin con-
necting the motherboard components. Refer to the following:
1 Connect the CPU cooling fan cable to CPU_FAN
2 Connect the system cooling fan connector to SYS_FAN
3 Connect the case switches and indicator LEDs to the PANEL1.
4 Connect the standard power supply connector to ATX_POWER1.
5 Connect the auxiliary case power supply connector to ATX12V1.
Connecting 20/24-pin power cable
Users please note that the 20-pin and 24-pin power cables can both be connected
to the ATX_POWER1 connector. With the 20-pin power cable, just align the 20-
pin power cable with the pin 1 of the ATX_POWER1 connector. However, using
20-pin power cable may cause the system to become unbootable or unstable
because of insufficient electricity. A minimum power of 300W is recommended
for a fully-configured system.
