Hi,I'm connecting a OCZ mod xstream-pro psu to a ASUS M4A88T-V EVO,i have the normal 24pin and 8 pin on mobo but the PSU has an additional 4 pin cable,what should i do with it? I'm assuming this is an option for different mobo's,but i'm not sure.

cheers

Some boards only have a 4 pin CPU power connector, just tie it up to one.

I believe some higher end overclocking needs the 8-pins, as it splits the load over 2 4-pins, making it easier on the PSU. Will be fine with 4
