Hello!
Here are my computer specs:
HP Pavilion a6040n PC
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&docname=c00878693
Parts that are being added to the system (replacing the old components):
- Intel Core 2 Duo E6700 Dual-Core Processor, 2.6 GHz, 4M L2 Cache, LGA775
- ASUS GeForce GT 440 (Fermi) 1GB 128-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready Video Card, ENGT440/DI/1GD5
- CORSAIR CX430M 430W ATX12V v2.3 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Modular Active PFC Power Supply
Here is my question: I replaced the old CPU with the new one just fine. I placed the new PSU and it fits fine in the case. Before I placed the new PSU in, I noticed there were 4 places that I need to connect the power cables (for a lack of a better word - Or is it called power connectors?). I connected to 3 and am unable to connect to one location on the motherboard, which requires a "p7" type of power cable. The PSU that I bought (see above) did not provide a cable that connects to p7, but the old PSU has it. I have attached pictures for you to see what I mean:
Is there a product that will connect my new PSU to the p7 socket (if this is not the right term, let me know - I am learning
)? In order to connect to the PSU, it has to be a "Type3" socket/connector...
Thank you for your help! Hope I am clear with what I am asking!
