1-6 Power Supply

As with all computer products, a stable power source is necessary for proper and

reliable operation. It is even more important for processors that have high CPU

clock rates of 1 GHz and faster.

The X7SBA accommodates 12V ATX power supplies. Although most

power supplies generally meet the specications required by the CPU, some are

inadequate. A 2 amps of current supply on a 5V Standby rail is strongly recom-

mended.

The X7SBA accommodates ATX power supplies. It is strongly recommended that

you use a high quality power supply that meets ATX power supply Specication

2.02 or above. You should use one that will supply at least 350W of power. Also

your power supply must supply 1.5A for the Ethernet ports. It must also be SSI

compliant (info at http://www.ssiforum.org/). Additionally, in areas where noisy

power transmission is present, you may choose to install a line lter to shield

the computer from noise. It is recommended that you also install a power surge

protector to help avoid problems caused by power surges.
