I see it has an 8 pin power connector not far from the CPU. Do you have to have an 8 pin psu plug? or can you use 4 pin plug?

Hi Katrin, you can have a 4 pin plug and It should work just fine. I have mine with a 4 pin and it works like a charm. Hope it helps.

you have to have an 8 pin connection.If your power supply have a 4 pin only you can by a adapter,4 pin to 8 pin

4 pin works fine in an 8 pin slot, just leave half of it free it will run just fine.

All 4 pin connectors support 3 pin fans but the PWM speed control is not supported (4 pin PWM fans only). This board has two connectors for case fans and one for the CPU. Personally, I'd spend a couple extra bucks and buy new 4 pin fans.

It uses a ATX12V power supply connector. Even if your power supply has the 4 pin connector missing from main connector. The motherboard has Alternate power connector that can be used along with the main power connection.

I placed the information you gave me in a power supply calculator. I didn't have all the info on your pc so I guessed at some things, such as 2 dvd drive instead of 1, and 2 hard drives instead of 1. The answer I got was a recommended 345 watt power supply. In that case, this power supply here will work great! But I encourage you to do your own power calculations because you have more info about your pc than I do. This is the online calculator I used--&gt; http://www.thermaltake.outervision.com/ the CPU Socket for your pc is--&gt; Socket LGA 1155. Hope I have been able to help you.

It is a 4 pin. It will work on a 3 pin connector, but it will be a single speed (the 4th pin is the PWM/speed control pin). Make sure you're aware that its max TDP cooling capacity is 65 watts). I was using this cooler on a 65w court, and it would not keep it cool enough for me in an ITX build....I changed it out for a stock cooler....a bit more noise, but the cpu now stays in the upper 30c, where as with this cooler temps were always in the high 50s.

It has a 20 pin primary atx pwr. connector + a 4 pin aux. connector for a total of 24 pins. It has a 8 pin 12 vdc pwr. connector. I use it on a asus p8 z77-v lx /i5 processor and it uses all pins. Some new motherboards require this pwr. supply.

Still researching the question but I "assume" the question related to a requiring a 6-pin connector to power the card - besides the PCI Express slot itself.

This does have a Six-Pin Auxiliary power connect, I'm still currently using this PSU. Just be sure to look at the 6-pin wattage requirement for the GPU.

You only need to connect the two 8 pin's for regular over clocking. The extra 6 pin is for when you want to push it. The stock clock speed is like 1000 core and 1475 mem off the top of my head

Yes, the CPU really has nothing to do much with buying a PSU. The main thing you need to check more so than your CPU is your motherboard, if it requires a 24 pin + 4 pin connectors or a 24 + 8 pin connectors. Either configuration should work with this PSU. If I could recommend another PSU to you, I think you should go for a Corsair CX model such as the CX600. I've owned this particular Thermaltake PSU in the past and it had a brain rattling, extremely annoying noisy fan. It also overheated on me a couple times. Don't go budget on your PSU.

If I remember (motnths ago) it was a 20 pin with a 4 pin optional. I believe if you use the spare, you are limiting yourself to onboard GFX (it's a 300 watt so its pretty understandable)

Yup, it'll connect right up. Edit: I've got mine hooked up to my PSU powering six fans.

your power cord is connected to your powersupply man. if you dont have a 6 pin connector you have to upgrade your psu

It is a great psu I can say that, I cant remember excatly how many connectors it has. Im not sure what your card requires. But what it is running from me is an amd 8100 8 core. Overclocked to 4.2 ghz, corsair ht 100i, 2 gigabyte hd 7870s overclocled edition crossfired a 1tb hard drive, disc drive, 2 120mm fans 4 pin, 3 80 or 90 mm 3 pin fans and my asus motherdoard. I can say it runs all this amd has never shut down because of power usage like the psu I returned for this one did.i believe its actually made by seagate which is why I bought it. It top or bottom mounts and is quite which great for the amount of air the big ass fam moves. Could not be happier with this product. Sorry I hope this helps.

Hello good day. look I've never seen that the psu divide into intel and amd, so I guess it will work, I have a core i5 and works very well. luck

Yes, you need six pin power. Otherwise it will just lock up. I had that problem even though I had a six pin power plug in my old PSU but it was unable to meet the amperage requirement for this card on the 12V rail

The water cooling unit uses a 4 prong connector but only 3 prongs are there, I personally set this to a molex converter since the power has to be constant anyway - the water cooling unit won't change anything based on system need. However, the Fan that comes with this unit uses a 4 pin and should probably go into your CPU Fan slot on your motherboard. It'll work with 3 pins as well, but having the variable fan control will help it not be too loud. I personally use an after-market fan and the fan that came with this unit, the after market is used on the CPU fan port and I put the coolermaster fan in one of the case fan ports and set it to the lowest RPM available (30%) since it can be a bit loud.
