Erm... I just bought a Acbel 350W for my sister, but I found that one of the 20 pin conector is not connected, I mean there is no wire/cable/those copper thingy for that pin. Is it normal?
Can't off my comp n open my casing to check now because downloading some stuft(16 hours remaining, not resumable  )... If its not normal to have a pin like that then I need to go back and change asap. Please help.  Edited: Sorry if this is kinda off topic here.

I know Silverstone PSU have them but not sure bout others. Not sure about the intention though but you can still use a 24pin + 4pin connector with it. The 4pin will fit into the 8pin connector and you are still able to use them but not good for stability issue though. At least i am using it now on my DFI with the CM Real Power..what PSU offer this kind of connections? getting more and more confuse........... |
