I recently got a Cosair CX750 thinking that it was compatible with my Micro-ATX motherboard, it was not.
I am looking for a PSU that has enough wattage to handle my new R9 270x GPU and still Micro ATX compatible.

Motherboard: Violet6 (hp pavillion p6310f)
GPU Sapphire R9 207x 2GB GDDR5

My connections are a 24 pin and a 4 pin.
this CX750 has the 24 pin, but NO 4 pin, instead it has an 8pin...or a 6pin, its back in the box now.

If you know how to fanangle it to make it work, i am all ears....er....eyes

The motherboard in your PC has a standard 24-pin ATX connector and a four-pin ATX connector. A Corsair 500 (Builders series) should be just what you need. It will have all of the required power capacity and connectors for your motherboard and peripherals. The ATX 12V v2.3 spec is the latest standard.
