3. Use the screws provided with your case to install the power supply into your
computer. NOTE: It is recommended to install the power supply with the fan
facing down. However, if your case places the power supply at the bottom of
the case and there are no ventilation holes available, it may be best to install
the power supply with the fan facing up for greater efficiency and reliability.
4. Connect the 24-pin ATX cable to the motherboard.
5. Connect the 4+4-pin EPS12V cable to the motherboard.
(Optional) – If you plan on extreme overclocking and your
motherboard supports additional 8pin or 4pin CPU power
connectors, connect the second 4+4-pin EPS12V cable. This is
only needed for heavy overclocking or for Dual CPU motherboards.
6. Connect the 6/6+2-pin PCI-E cables to your graphic card(s).
NOTE 1: Do not attempt to plug an 8-pin PCI-E cable into a 6-pin
connector without first detaching the two extra pins.
NOTE 2: We recommend to use a single PCI-E cable to connect per
port on graphic cards if your video card requires high power such as
equipped with more than 2 PCI-E connectors 6pin + 8pin and 8pin + 8pin.
7. Connect SATA power cables to all data drives or optical drives.
(hard drives, solid state drives, optical drives)
8. Connect the peripheral "Molex" 4-pin connectors for fans, pumps,
legacy components and other devices/adapters.
9. Connect the AC power cord to your power supply and to the wall.
Check all connections to assure a solid connection and turn the
power switch on the power supply to the ON position.

Q&A
Q: I see there are more than 4 screw holes on the back of the power supply, but the packaging only offers (4)
screws, are some missing?
A: Nothing is missing; you will only need to attach the EVGA power supply to the case with 4 screws.
The power supply offers more than (4) holes to provide optimal compatibility for today's varied case designs.
Q: My EVGA Power Supply includes (2) EPS cables for my motherboard, do I need to connect up both?
A: Motherboards only require (1) 4+4 or 8pin EPS connection. On some models, an additional 4+4pin or 8pin
connection on the motherboard may be available for dual CPU configurations or for extreme over clocking. If your
motherboard support dual 4+4pin EPS connections, please refer to your motherboard manufacturer's manual for
details on the proper function and power if the EPS connections.
Q: What is the Dual Thermal Control System?
A: The Dual Thermal Control System, when Eco mode enabled, allows the fan on your EVGA power supply to
shut off during low to moderate operation loads. The EVGA power supply's fan will automatically turn back on
when needed, based on the temperature the power supply reaches. The fan will also increase in RPM when needed,
based on the load operation being requested from the components connected. This prevents unnecessary rotation,
reduces ambient noise levels and will increase the life span of the fan due to the fan not spinning when
not required.
Please Note: If the Eco mode is disabled the fan will always spin, even at low loads. The fan will also
increase in RPM as needed automatically, based on the power draw from attached components
Q: What if I want to use power adapters for my video card(s)/motherboard/peripherals?
A: EVGA always recommends the use of direct power connections from the power supply to power the video
card(s), motherboard connections and other auxiliary power connections for optimal power distribution.
Q: Does it matter which end of the cable I plug into the power supply?
A: Yes, the connections going to the power supply, will not have "break downs" like the EPS (CPU) has 4+4 on
one side and full 8-pin on the other. Another example is the 24-pin cable, you can see on the PSU side it is a
total of 28 pins, where the 24-pin connection will go to the motherboard directly. Check each cable as it is labeled
appropriately to match the power supply side and connect only the same "matching" cable directly to the power
supply as referenced on each connector.
Q: I plugged everything in and the system will not POST, or goes into a boot loop.
A: Power the PSU off and double check to make sure all the power connections are firmly seated on the
motherboard and on the PSU side. If the problem persists you will want to try testing the 24-pin using the
provided PSU tester. If the PSU tests ok, then you will want to try testing the motherboard in "barebones" to get
a POST, removing everything except for the CPU and heatsink, 1 stick of RAM, 24-pin and 8-pin power connections.
Q: If I have an issue or a question, can I get support?
A: ALL EVGA products are backed by top tier warranties as well as 24/7 technical support. Support can be
reached for your power supply at 888-881-3842 option 1, option 3. Or contact us via email at support@evga.com.
