    Question PSU query?

    Looking towards getting a new MOBO shortly and have noticed that some require a 8pin supply to the ATX.

    My PSU = Tagan 800W lists a 1x 8pin CPU +12v can this be used for the ATX plug?

    TIA

    That should be the correct connector, yes

    Thanks dodgybob

    For a moment there I had the horrible thought that I might have to get a new PSU as well.

    Though it doesn't bear well for a MOBO supporting 3 PCIe does it.
