I just bought an ASUS A8N-E motherboard to replace my old gigabyte that wouldnt allow me to overclock and when I install'd it nothing happens when I turn it on.

Now my question is...is does the A8N-E require the seperate 4 pin connector to work or is my board faulty. I just ordered a seperate 4 pin connector for the motherboard because my current is a 24 pin and when you detach the 4 pin from the 24 it does not reach the seperate 4 pin power connecter that the motherboard has!

Thank you in advance for all your help!

The 4 pin is to power the cpu so yes you won't get anything without it. Also, just wondering what psu that is.
