Users please note that the 20-pin and 24-pin power cables can both be con-
nected to the PWR1
connector. With either type of power cable, just align
the power cable with the pin 1 of the PWR1 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 recom-
mended for a fully-configured system.
