I know this has been asked thousands of times but reassurance on the following would ease my mind.
My new MoBo (Gigabyte GA-X48-DQ6) has a cover over the 8-pin ATX 12v leaving only 4 of the 8-pins exposed. I plan on removing the cover to use the 8-pin ATX 12v connector from my Antec NeoPw 650 PSU.
The main question is, should I remove the plastic cover and use the 8pin or leave it and us the 4 pin?
Using the 8-pin is fine if not preferred right?
See system build in sig.
I did a search on this and read many debates that quickly get off topic.
Thanks in advance
Don
