The Q&A thread was closed, so I ask here:
I see my motherboard has two ATX power cables. One is 24pin, another is 8 pin. Does that mean my motherboard requires me to plug 8pin also? Mobo requires that much voltage ah... |

QUOTE(Human10 @ Sep 5 2015, 01:26 PM) I think you mean the EPS 4+4 pins for CPU? Oh, i see.Yeah, the normal configuration is 4 pins or 8 pins for high end mobo which expected to be overclocked heavily. In short, whether you should plug in 4 pins or 8 pins depend on the CPU configuration. Power guzzle and heavy overclocked probably need the 8 pins.  I found the 8 pin coming from my psu. I thought i would have to go buy one. Thanks! |
