Identify the power supply connectors: (Power supply version only) /24 pin ATX connector X ATX 12V P4 CPU connector X Serial ATA (SATA) connector X pin peripheral connector X pin PCI-Express connector X Floppy drive connector X 2 Connect PC components to the required power connector for each device type. 7

10 7. Case accessories: 7.1 The RF choke is used to suppress radio frequency interference. Front panel wiring is wound through the RF choke prior to motherboard connection. 7.2 The bracket shown can be screwed to the rear of the case, allowing a lock to be used for security purposes. 8.
