Intel Desktop Board WX58BP Technical Product Specification 
52 
 
2.5.2 
Fan Header Current Capability 
 CAUTION 
You must connect the processor fan to the processor fan header—not to a chassis fan 
header. Connecting the processor fan to a chassis fan header may result in onboard 
component damage that will halt fan operation. 
Table 23 lists the current capability of the fan headers.

2.0 A 
 
2.5.3 
Add-in Board Considerations 
The board is designed to provide 2 A (average) of current for each add-in board from 
the +5 V rail. The total +5 V current draw for add-in boards for a fully loaded board 
(all six expansion slots filled) must not exceed the system’s power supply +5 V 
maximum current or 14 A in total. 
2.6 
Thermal Considerations 
 CAUTION 
A chassis with a maximum internal ambient temperature of 38
C at the processor fan 
inlet is a requirement. Use a processor heatsink that provides omni-directional airflow 
to maintain required airflow across the processor voltage regulator area. 
 CAUTION 
Failure to ensure appropriate airflow may result in reduced performance of both the 
processor and/or voltage regulator or, in some instances, damage to the board. For a 
list of chassis that were tested with Intel desktop boards, refer to the following

remains solely with the reader. Intel makes no warranties or representations that 
merely following the instructions presented in this document will result in a system 
with adequate thermal performance.
