CAUTION
Failure to use an appropriate power supply and/or not connecting the 12 V (2 x 4 pin)
power connector to the Desktop Board may result in damage to the board or the
system may not function properly.
The 2 x 12 pin main power connector on the Desktop Board is backwards compatible
with ATX12V power supplies with 2 x 10 connectors. Use of the 1 x 4 power connector
is required with ATX12V power supplies when using PCI Express add-in cards that can
consume up to 75 W. Figure 30 shows the location of the
power connectors.
