Compatibility & safe installation
- Confirm the SFX mounting envelope, 125 mm length clearance, intake access and fixed lead reach in the target case.
- Compare the GPU's required plugs with the separate 6-pin and 6+2-pin leads and check the 432 W +12 V ceiling; do not treat two plugs as proof of a supported GPU load.
- Use the model-specific 450 W rail table; the adjacent 350 W variant has a different rating.
- Never open, repair or electrically probe the unit.
