Power supplies are intended to be installed by professional staff or technical service.
Basic guidelines for installation and started:
1.
Following the instructions on the PC case, open it and remove the previous power
supply by disconnecting all the connections and removing the screws that secure the
power supply to the PC. Then place the new power supply in the same place.
2.
Locate and connect the ATX, 20 or 20+4 pin main connector on the motherboard. If the
motherboard has only 20 pins, separate the additional 4 pins.
3.
Perform the same process with the secondary cable that supplies an additional 12V.
This cable usually has 8 pins (4 + 4), but only four may be required depending on the
type of motherboard.
4.
Connect each of the hard drives and optical drives using the SATA,
MOLEX or FDD connectors provided for them. Keep in mind that each device requires
its power and data cable to be connected.
5.
Finally, if you have a graphic card that requires additional power, locate and connect the
PCI-e (6-pin) or (6+2-pin) connector on your graphic card. Allowing the separation of these
additional 2 pins depending on the power you need.
6.
Once the installation is complete, connect the power cord to the power and set the
switch to “I” position, then turn on the computer.
