Warning: To avoid damaging your motherboard and
components, please use a power supply that supports
a 24-pin, two 8-pin power and one 4-pin connectors.
Be sure to connect the 24-pin and the 8-pin power
connectors to your power supply for adequate power
delivery to your system. The 4-pin power connector
is optional; however, Supermicro recommends that
this connector also be plugged in for optimal power
delivery.
