My cords dont reach. I need the 4 pin as well as the 24 pin, my question is this
Newegg seems to be where I will order it since no stores carry it. My power supply has 24 pins, and my mobo has 24 pins but all I can seem to find is 20 pin to 24 pin and 24 pin to 20 pin.
Is it ok to just grab one of these? Or do I need to find a 24 pin to 24 pin?
Also, there are no washers between the standoffs and the mobo, some say that is fine and it wont short, but I want to double-check.

Some boards with 24 pin can be run just fine with a 20 pin. I'm not sure what your board is or if it would safely run w/o the extra 4 pin, but it's something you may want to check out.

Mine didn't come with any washers and I have no problems at all (nor did the case before my current one).

They are impossible to find in stores so I was going to order one but didnt see any 24p to 24p that could be ordered. I was thinking about just getting another atx extender but not sure if the voltage and everything would be the same so didnt do it and just looking to see if I can plug my 24 from the psu to the 20 (even though it holds 24) in the mobo
