little square PSU plug...

Do all PSUs have them nowadays? Or just some? Was looking at this (http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=17-104-979&catalog=58&depa=1) PSU, and was wondering if it had it. It doeesn't say "AMD Approved", and I m a n00b when it comes to PSUs.

It definitely has the P4 connector because it's too new not to have it. The only connectors that some PSUs don't have now are those for SATA drives and the 6-pin Aux.

k, thnx. O, and y is it called a P4 connector? some Athlon systems use it too.

yeah, all PSU should have those these days, unless you get
some cheap off the wall brand.

The "P4" actually has nothing to do with Intel but is
the designation of the plug.
ATX = P1 ... then there's P8, P2 etc ...

And that "AMD approved" thing is usually just a market ploy
for PSU with bottom fans. A single back fan will work just as well. :)

K, thanx. Srry for the misunderstanding.
