New upgrade from slightly older rig.
I am getting my new MOBO and Processor Tomorrow. I opened my current system and noticed that my PSU only has 1x4 pin CPU connector, the new board has an 8 pin. Can I use this temporarily until I can afford the new PSU next week?
I have only ever overclocked 1 CPU before and that was this X2 550, never could get it right so I went back to default with 1 extra core unlocked. I have OC'd a few Video cards before, and never had good luck and always reverted back to stock. So I do not plan to Over clock anything on this setup with current PSU. And will look at Overclocking the Sniper memory to 1600 on the new PSU if possible.
Current:
Phenom X2 550
Asus P.O.S. older chipset board with above CPU core unlocked for three.
Raptor Drive
2x4GB G Skill Sniper 1333mhz
600 watt PS (about 1.5 years old)
Upgrades:
MSI 990FXA-GD65 V2
FX-8320 (125watt)
From current system: Raptor Drive, 2x4GB G Skill Sniper 1333mhz,600 watt PS (Same as above)
