Installation
Before proceeding with installation, please read through this manual in its entirety.
Please consult with individual component manufactures installation manuals prior
to proceeding. This guide is meant to be used in conjunction with all the other
installation guides for your components.
Step A: Building a brand new system:
(If you are replacing your existing power supply, please go to step B.)
Please make sure the HX1000W is not connected to the AC power cord. Following
the directions in your chassis manual install the HX1000W in your computer case
with the provided screws. The main 24-pin power cable on the HX1000W has a
detachable 4-pin mechanism to support either a 24-pin or a 20-pin socket on the
motherboard. If your motherboard has a 24-pin socket, you may connect the
24-pin main power cable from the HX1000W directly to your motherboard. If your
motherboard has a 20-pin socket, you must detach the 4-pin cable from the 24-pin
connector, and then plug the 20-pin cable onto your motherboard without
connecting the 4-pin connector.
WARNING: The detachable 4-pin from the 24-pin main connector is not a "P4" or "+12V"
connector. Serious damage can be caused if you use it in place of "P4" or "+12V" connector.
The EPS12V 8-pin connector can be separated and used as a P4 or ATX 4-pin
connector. If your motherboard is equipped with a P4 connector separate the
EPS12V 8-pin connector and plug one of the halves into your motherboard. It does
not matter which half you choose. If your motherboard has an EPS12V 8-pin socket,
connect the 8-pin cable directly to your motherboard. Some motherboards have
two EPS12V connectors. If your motherboard has two EPS12V sockets ensure you
connect both of them. Connect the modular cables as needed. Inspect the ends of
the modular cables that connect to the power supply and note that blue ended
cables are for the PCI-E cables and the black ended ones are for peripheral devices
such as case fans, disk drives and floppy drives.
The HX1000W includes 10 Peripheral cables (4-pin Molex), 6 PCI-Express (6+2 Pin)
cables, and 10 SATA connectors. Connect SATA or 4-pin Molex connectors to the
hard disk (repeat for additional hard disk drives). Do not connect both a SATA
power connector and a 4-pin Molex connector to the same drive unless directed to
do so by the drive manufacturer. Connect Peripheral or SATA cables to the drives.
The PCI-E connectors supplied with your HX1000W power supply work with both
6 and 8-pin style video cards. Connect the appropriate PCI-E cable(s) to the power
socket of your PCI-Express video card if required. If your video card requires two
PCI-E connectors do not connect a hardwired PCI-E connector and a modular
connector to the same video card. It is recommended to use either fixed mount
cables or modular cables but not both on the same video card. Connect all
peripheral devices that require 4-pin Molex connections such as fans, optical drives
and hard disk drives. After you have connected all your devices, you may connect
the other end of the cables to the HX1000W. The blue ended plugs connect to the
blue sockets on the power supply and the black connectors attach to the black
sockets on the power supply. Please make sure all the cables are fully seated.
Connect the AC power cord to the HX1000W and turn on the HX1000W by pushing
the switch to the "I" position.
