Bought some new pieces to upgrade my system (mobo,cpu, ram, hd) and i forgot to take into account the power requirements.
The motherboard has a 24 pin and 4 pin power connector. My psu has a 20 and 4 pin connector. I'm pretty sure the answer is no, but figured i'd ask anyhow before i go an order a new power supply.
Power supply i have is Thermaltake silent power 480w
I'm pretty sure 480w is enough power. And I'm pretty sure its probably not a good idea to plug a 20 pin connector into a 24 pin power slot on the mobo but I'll ask anyhow
if i do need a new power supply, any recommendations? I'll be using an asus P5K SE motherboard with a Dual Core E6750 cpu, no overclocking, and a 7600 gt gpu (to be upgraded later).

that one seems a little nicer but its a bit more.
