Hi all,
I need your help, I have a small problem with my power supply. It has got 20 pin to plug onto the motherboard and I need to have 24 pin to plug onto the motherboard. I have got a 12v power supply with 500 watts with 20 pin.
However, I have been advised to get a new power supply with 12v and 350 minmum requirement to be safe.
So I am thinking about to get adapter 20 pin to 24 pin to see if it would work so I could plug them onto the motherboard. Would it cause any harm to the motherboard if I get adapter cable?
Do you think it is a good idea to get adapter cable or if I should get another power supply?
I don't think I would need to get another power supply, because you have only change the watts and the cable, nothing is else.
The motherboard I have got is AsRock 980DE3/U3S3.
Thanks in advance
