Product Overview
The ASUS ROG Strix Aura 1000W is a high-performance power supply unit designed for integration into modern computer systems. It features a modular cable design, allowing for cleaner cable management and improved airflow within your chassis. The unit includes a dedicated 0dB fan button, which allows users to toggle between a silent operation mode (where the fan stops under low loads) and a performance mode (where the fan spins continuously for maximum cooling).
Safety Information
Warning: The power supply unit contains high-voltage components. Under no circumstances should you attempt to open the casing, repair, or clean the internal components. Opening the unit will immediately void your warranty. Do not insert any objects into the ventilation areas or the fan, as this can obstruct airflow and cause overheating or damage. The unit is intended for indoor computer use only and should not be used in high-temperature, high-humidity, or wet environments. Operating temperature should be maintained between 0°C and 50°C with relative humidity between 20% and 80%.
Installation
Before installing or removing any cables, ensure that your computer system is completely powered off and that the power cord is unplugged from the wall outlet. Secure the power supply unit into your computer chassis using the provided mounting screws. Connect the necessary modular cables to the power supply unit first, then route them to your components. Ensure all connectors are firmly seated in their respective sockets on the motherboard, CPU, graphics card, and peripheral devices. Once all connections are secure, connect the power cord to the unit and flip the power switch to the I position to turn on the system.
Maintenance and Troubleshooting
The power supply unit is designed to be maintenance-free. If you experience power-related issues, first verify that all cables are securely connected to both the power supply and the components. Ensure the power switch is in the correct position and that the wall outlet is providing power. If the fan is not spinning, check if the 0dB function is enabled; if the system is under low load, this is normal behavior. If the unit fails to power on, do not attempt to open it; contact ASUS support for professional assistance.
