2.6.10  Power Connectors

We recommend that you use a power supply that complies with the
ATX12V  Power  Supply  Design  Guide  Version  1.1.  Connect  the
ATX12V  power  supply’s  20-pin  ATX  main  power  connector  and
4-pin  +12V  power  connector  to  ATXPOWER  and  ATXP1
respectively.

The  4-pin  +12V  power  connector  enables  the  deliver y  of  more
+12VDC  current  to  the  processor’s  Voltage  Regulator  Module
(VRM).

The  system  board  requires  a  minimum  of  250  Watt  power  supply
to  operate. Your  system  configuration  (amount  of  memory,  add-in
cards, peripherals, etc.) may exceed the minimum power requirement.
To  ensure  that  adequate  power  is  provided,  use  a  300 Watt  (or
greater) power supply.
