Am I just blind?

I don't know about you guys, but I cannot seem to find the ATX power connector on this this motherboard. Maybe I'm just blind?

Can't find it either...makes no sense

Thats because its not there. The image on their website is that exact same image. I got curious and downloaded the .pdf manual for the AK37, and it shows the ATX connector directly on top of the DIMMS on the edge of the motherboard. This is odd, because there doesn't look to be enough space between the clips and the ATX connection. WTF is going on?

Look at the picture more closely. Pay special attention to the northbridge heatsink and the blue and red wires coming from it. That picture looks like it has been cut up.

Yeah, I went back to the picture and it has to be a chop job. Look at the floppy connector and the MOFSET (isn't that what it is?) that's sticking straight out of it.

If you look carefully, there's a lot of problems with the pic. The least they could have done was to spend a little more time on it.

Uhh..going back to the website, the picture has changed to a shot of the box?!?
