Now onto my problem. When I was reading the motherboard manual it said something about there being a 4 prong power port on the motherboard that had to be plugged into the power supply or the motherboard would not work correctly. Well the thing is, there is no 4 port plug that came with my PSU that will fit in that slot. It came with an extra 8 port but no 4. It looks like the 8 could fit and overhang the other 4 wires on one side or the other but I wanted to ask here first before I attempted something.


If I didnt explain it right and noone understands I'll upload some pictures I took to demonstrate.

Thanks

Dennis

EPS/ATX12V 8-4 pin

There is, but it's 2x4 or 8pin. Plug it in the mobo's 4-pin by the cpu with the latch on the same side. Make sure the prong matches.
