4pin/8pin cpu connector on mobo

**Elijah** · #1 7th Jan 2008, 11:47 AM

Hi all!

I have a question I need an answer to before I buy a new mobo.

I am going to get a mobo that will be using an an e6600 or e6759 processor.
The mobo i'm looking at supports intel core2duo, quadcore, and extreme I think.
The mobo has a 4 pin cpu power connector.
Will this work or do I need and 8 pin cpu connector?

Thanks

Elijah

You mean the PSU has a 4 pin power connector?

You original question doesnt make much sense but yes it will all work.
The PSU can use either 4 or 8 pin (as shown on the product page

)so it doesnt matter whether the board requires 4 or 8.
