Section 06 - Addendum
Where is the Voltage Being Used?
PSUs come with a handful of rails, sometime's it's nice to track them down:
+12V -- Pretty much anything with a motor, the P4/ATX12 connector
+5V -- General motherboard stuff, memory, laptop harddrives
+3.3V -- CPU core, memory
-12V -- Used mostly older serial chips
-5V -- Obsolete/discontinued
I just built my computer and it wont turn on!
Plug in all the cables correctly, including (where applicable) the EPS12 (a 2x8 pin connector) and the ATX12 (2x2 pin connector)
