Hello (again)
I think I should ask about powering the board.
I see EATX power, 24 pin. No problem there, obvious.

Then I see Eatx 12V - 1 (6 pin) & Eatx 12V - 2. (4 pin)
Do I run power supplies to both 1 & 2 ?

(i read the book but it really does not specify

Thank you.

I have both connected and the molex at the bottom of the board as well (for PCI) just for good measure. Although I believe the board can run with just the 8-pin it will limit the success of more ambitious overclocking stability.
