Thank You for Your reply. The power supply 60 Watts works.

The windows 10 installed is very slow. Currently only 2 GB non-ECC memory is installed (DDR3-1600 CL11 SDRAM). The manual for the ASROCK QC 5000M Rev 1.01
says: supports DDR-3 1600/1333/1066 non-ECC un-buffered memory up to 32 GB.
I have a lot of DDR-3 ECC Server Memory e.g. MT36JSF51272PZ-1G4.
Unfortunately with this memory installed the system does not even boot. Is it
due to the fact that ECC memory cannot be used?

The A4 5000 is a very low power embedded CPU. It should be more than fine with
a 60w power brick. You can see the peak power draw in this review from Techspot:
https://www.techspot.com/review/671-amd-a4-5000-kabini/page2.html

Under full load on both the CPU and GPU (Prime 95 and Furmark) the system pulled
just 23w. I am guessing your custom MiniPC is using a Pico/equivalent power adapter
to allow for external power bricks, either way, your 60w brick is overkill in
the configuration you are using. A 75w brick would only really be needed if you
were to install a mid range or higher PCIe GPU that needs more power. That would
be more or less pointless as the CPU would bottleneck anything more than a low
end GPU.

I hope this answers your question.]]> Wed, 19 Jun 2024 02:51:11 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=44373&PID=127092&title=power-consumption-qc5000m#127092 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=44373&PID=127091&title=power-consumption-qc5000m#127091 Author: hpcraith

I have a custom MiniPC barebone with a QC5000M board.
CPU ist AMD Athlon A4-5000 Quad-Core. No FAN.
I bought this june 2016. Unfortunately I do not find the power-supply.
I use a 12V 5A = 60W supply, which seems to work. The dealer told me that they
have delivered it with a 75W power supply.
The usage of this Hardware will be only with
Screen (HDMI)
Keyboard
Mouse
LAN

I tried to find out the power consumption from the user manual.
There is nothing mentioned at all.

Where can I find information about the power consumption.
