Installation Steps
- Open your computer chassis; please refer to the instruction manual provided with your chassis.
- Install the PSU into the case with the four screws provided.
- If your motherboard requires a 24pin Main Power connector, please connect the 24pin Main Power connector to the motherboard.
- For motherboards that only require a 4pin ATX 12V(CPU) connector, please detach a 4pin connector from the 4+4pin ATX 12V connector and connect it to the motherboard. (Either one of the 4pin from the 4+4pin ATX 12V connector will work)
- For motherboards that requires a single 8pin EPS connector, please use the 4+4pin connector from the power supply.
- Connect other peripheral power connectors to devices such as hard drives, optical drives, etc.
- If your graphic card requires PCI-E power connector, please connect corresponding PCI-E connector instructed by your graphic card's user manual. Please note the power supply utilizes an unique 6+2pin PCI-E connector that can be effectively used as a single 8pin or 6pin PCI-E connector. To use it as a 6pin PCI-E connector, please detach the 2pin connector from the 6+2pin connector.
- Close your computer case and connect the AC power cord to the power supply AC inlet.
- Attention! When Smart Zero Fan System is turned on, the fan will not operate until the power supply reaches approximately 30% of rated load; It is normal if the fan does not operate when computer is at a low working load.
