GV-N26 Series Graphics Accelerator
The GV-N26OC-896I 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-N26OC-896I 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 the adapter fits 12V/15A
specification. Failure to do so may jeopardize the stability of the graphics card.
