So I was building my new PC today. I thought I was going to use my old power supply...but maybe not. It is a 550watt Thermaltake. It has a 20 pin connector to the motherboard and another 4 pin connector. The new Asus motherboard has a 24 pin connector and another 4. Is there an adapter I can use? Or do I need to get a whole new power supply? 3/7/2009 5:53:24 PM |

You can plug in a 20-pin into the 24-pin slot. Or, alternatively, you can get an adapter to make it work (NewEgg is where I got the last one). Or go ahead and pony up for teh new POWRRR supply. 3/10/2009 1:19:07 PM |
