After you have installed the motherboard into a case, you can begin connecting the
motherboard components. Refer to the following:
1
Connect the CPU cooling fan cable to
CPU_FAN1
.
2
Connect the system cooling fan connector to
SYS_FAN1
.
3
Connect the case switches and indicator LEDs to the
F_PANEL1
.
4
Connect the standard power supply connector to
ATX1
.
5
Connect the auxiliary case power supply connector to
ATX12V1
.
6
Connect the case speaker cable to
SPK1
.
Users please note that the 20-pin and 24-pin power cables can both be
connected to the ATX1 connector. With the 20-pin power cable, just
align the 20-pin power cable with the pin 1 of the ATX1 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.
With ATX v2.x power supply, users please
note that when installing 24-pin power
cable, the latches of power cable and the
ATX1 match perfectly.
With ATX v1.x power supply, users please
note that when installing 20-pin power
cable, the latch of power cable falls on
the left side of the ATX1 connector latch,
just as the picture shows.
