will this power supply power this mobo . The mobo requires 8 pin cpu connector , im connecting my current mobo with the 4 pin. I see that the psu has an 8 pin connection , but I am not sure if IT IS THE CPU connector or the graphics card connector
The Antec Earthwatts 650 power supply comes with two small connectors for the motherboard. One is 4 pin connector and one is an 8 pin connector. You can plug the 8 pin connector into your motherboard and ignore the 4 pin connector. Or if your motherboard only requires a 4 pin connection, then you can plug in the 4 pin connector and ignore the 8 pin connector. It just depends on which connection is on the motherboard.
The power supply also comes with two PCI-e connectors for video cards. One is a 6 pin connector and one is a 6+2 pin connector. The 6+2 pin connector can be used for either a 6 pin video card connection or an 8 pin video card connection. It can be used either way.
Good Luck
