I have a question regarding the 4 pin power plugs that have been showing up on crossfire and sli motherboards lately. My question is if you do not plan on running crossfire or sli do you need to plug it in? I'm hopefull that you do not have to because cable management will be a big issue with me since i have a case with a window.
The pics I've seen for the new am2 asus boards with rd580 and the new nforce 5 chipset do not have the 4 pin plugs that most of the other boards have, but they may not be the final revision of the board. Any insight on this would be helpfull. Thanks.
