What kind of power supply does this MB need?

[SevenSixTwo]

The motherboard is a SuperMicro X5DPA-TGM.

(http://supermicro.com/PRODUCT/MotherBoards/E7501/X5DPA-TGM.htm)

To ensure system stability, a 350W (minimum) ATX12V power supply (8-pin +12v and [24 or 20-pin] power connector) is required.

What is this 8-pin +12v are they talking about?

any piv ready psu is fine. :D. there is an extra connector that us amd guys never use, that's 8 pin, looks like the standard atx connector there, and one regular molex in.

get the 12cm version of the fortron 350w, 42$ shipped on cheapest ground ups shipping, fortron rates their psu's real conservatively so the max output of it is actually around 454w this baby has yet a system it wont power

Since this is a dual board, it takes an EPS PSU - the Fortron 550w and the Antec True 550 EPS would be my suggestion, though the Fortron 460 may also do the job too.

get the fortron 530w, not 550w, 530w is somehow better i hear..didnt notice it was a dual processor board at first...didnt even bother to check :D
