GV-N26 Series Graphics Accelerator
The GV-N26-896H-B/GV-N26OC-896H-B graphics card is a performance optimized high-end card.
Power is taken from the PCI Express host bus as well as the two 6-pin PCI Express power connectors.
Without auxiliary power provided to the GV-N26-896H-B/GV-N26OC-896H-B graphics card, an LED on
the bracket goes red and the graphics card will not boot. In addition, the connector that is not adequately
powered will turn red.
The table below outlines the different possible scenarios as well as the resulting behaviors.

If you want to use the included 6-pin power adapters, make sure at least 12V/15A current is
supplied to each 4-pin power connector on the adapters. Failure to do so may jeopardize the
stability of the graphics card.
Incorrect Connection
(The two 4-pin power connectors on
the adapter are connected to the same
system power supply cable.)
