I recently had a Corsair CX430 PSU fail. I have filed an RMA and damage claim for other damaged components by it and am waiting on those but I have found a Hipro 350w PSU in my equipment that only has a 4-PIN connector.
I have a Core i5 coming soon from Newegg (95w) as well as a new motherboard for it. I have heard many contradicting things about running a 95w CPU on a 4-pin CPU power connector. I have heard that the 4-pin connector can only supply 75w but have also heard that the 24 pin ATX mobo connector will make up for that. Any help here? I would love to get up and running as I am on a Dell with a Core 2 Duo now and it is killing me =)
