In order to achieve the best performance for your
applications, you must connect Siluro FX5900 OTES 128MB/
FX5600 Ultra OTES/FX5700 Ultra/FX5600 Ultra DT to the
computer’s power supply. Otherwise, your graphics card
would automatically lower its core/memory clock frequency,
and not be able to operate under maximum performance.

available one, use the supplied power extension cable to connect Siluro FX5900
OTES 128MB/ FX5600 Ultra OTES/FX5700 Ultra/FX5600 Ultra DT to the
computer’s hard drive power connector. Please follow the instructions shown below.
