Power connectors
A 24-pin main power supply connector (JPW1) and two 8-pin CPU PWR connectors (JPW2 and
JPW3) on the motherboard. These power connectors meet the SSI EPS 12V specification. In
addition to the 24-pin ATX power connector, the 12V 8-pin CPU PWR connectors at JPW2/JPW3
must also be connected to your power supply.
W
ARNING! To prevent damage to the power supply or motherboard, use a power supply
that contains a 24-pin and two 8-pin power connectors. Be sure to connect these
connectors to the 24-pin (JPW1) and the two 8-pin (JPW2 and JPW3) power connectors
on the motherboard. Failure to do so will void the manufacturer’s warranty on your power
supply and motherboard.
