Just got my supermicro server case and the 300w x2 psu has no 4 pin atx connector. Can i tap into the 12v line somwhere and make another connector or am i screwed?

Pics are below.

TIA

I suppose you may be able to add in the correct 4 pins but im not sure. I would be wary of doing so.

Yes you can. Maybe this is what you look for?

DaWiper Thanks!!!
I had a cable like that after i got to looking through my stuff And it confirmed my thought that i could hardwire that into my 300x2 psu.
When i opened up the cage that holds the 2 psu's i saw on the main board where there were extra solder points for those lines.

Thanks again!!!
