its been a few years since i've built a system and I dont remember anything about any extra connectors here but...
in addition to the 24-pin for the mobo there is a 8-pin by the CPU, which i gather provides additional power to the CPU, but on my Asus Maximus Formula 4 of the pins are covered
i have a Q6600 G0 and i'm wondering if i need to uncover the other 4 and use the 8 pin?
my power supply does have an 8-pin that is just floating in my case right now...
lol, or is there maybe a 3rd connection that i'm missing here...
thanks
