Built new PC CPU power connection Question HELP!
by attackofthemike - 7/8/09 9:12 AMI am in the middle of building a new HTPC.
I have a Thermaltake W0070RUC TR2 Series 430W Power Supply and an EVGA nforce 730a mobo. I just realized that the power supply's CPU power connector is 4pin and the mobos is 8. DO I have to get a new power supply? or can i just plug the 4pin into the 8? PLease help
thanks, Mike

Yes and No
