Whats the deal with 24pin ATX PSU connectors
I have just bought a Ultra Xconnect power supply 400watts to use in
conjunction with a AMD 3500+ and skt 939 board. Here it is: http://www.ultraproducts.com/product...roductID=3 04 It says it supports Pentium 4 and AMD CPUs and meets ATX version 2.03 and ATX 12V version 1.2 specification. When I bought it I thought it was the dogs ******** but now I see motherboards with 24 pin PSU connectors and wonder what's going on. Have I bought a lemon? Is it out of date? Has the ATX spec moved on? Can you plug a 20pin ATX connector from the power supply onto a 24pin connector on the motherboard and then use a 4 pin lead for the remaining 4 pins or would I need a convertor? The motherboard I want to use it with has the following connectors: 24-pin ATX Power connector 4-pin ATX 12V Power connector Would I need to buy extra cables / convertors to use it with this board? Thanks Pete |
