Hello
I am putting together a system which will use two Xeon L5420's on a X7DCA-L.
Today I received the motherboard and the CPU's with a view to purchasing the relevant heat sinks and ram tomorrow.
What I am stumped with is that the PSU I have which is a Sumvision PowerX3 Pro 800watt only has a single 4 pin CPU plug. Is it safe to take the supply from molex rail and use that ? ( I have seen cables which can supply power from the molex to 8pin CPU plug ) ..
(the socket(s) on the motherboard are for 1x24pin + 1x8pin
Hope someone could point me in the right direction.
Best Regards
