ATX 20 pins to ATX 24 pins?

ZPHATZ · 02-07-05, 10:52 AM

Hi
I just bought a Sparkle power supply model is FSP400-60THN. I checked the specs before I bought it and it for ATX, but it came with a 24 pins connector instead of a 20 pins which my MB has. Is there any anything I can change that 24 pins into a 20 pins? Thanks in advance.

There's an adapter around for that.

Thanks! Is there any problem using that adapter? Problems like putting too much stress on the 20 pins connector and burn something?

No, should be fine. Going from 24 to 20 is OK, going from 20 to 24 is not a good idea.
