2.7.2.1 Power Supply Connectors
The board has power supply connectors:
• Main power – a 2 x 12 connector. This connector is compatible with 2 x 10
connectors previously used on Intel Desktop boards. The board supports the use
of ATX12V power supplies with either 2 x 10 or 2 x 12 main power cables. When
using a power supply with a 2 x 10 main power cable, attach that cable on the
rightmost pins of the main power connector, leaving pins 11, 12, 23, and 24
unconnected.
• Processor core power – a 2 x 2 connector. This connector provides power
directly to the processor voltage regulator and must always be used. Failure to do
so will prevent the board from booting.

INTEGRATOR’S NOTE
When using high wattage PCI Express x16 graphics cards, use a power supply with a
2 x 12 main power cable. The 2 x 12 main power cable can provide up to 144 W of
power from the +12 V rail.
