From the pics I have seen of the NF7-S it looks like it has a 12v plug on it, the type for the P4 CPU's. Do we AMD people have to use this also with this mobo?

Sonny said:It doesn't help the 5V rail, it helps the 12V rail 'cause it is an auxiliary 12V line. This was added by Abit on their newer boards because the CPUs VCore is now drawn from the 12V rail instead of the 5V rail like in older boards.

Granted I do think my cpu is pulling something like 110 Watts...
Man I thought this psu was gonna last me... do you guys really think I need to upgrade?
Oh and sorry for the thread hijack, almost done
