Ok so got my system already to build etc and i come across this conumdrum..
Until now , i've always used AGP graphics cards so this is my first PCIe build... Anyway.. have the main 24 pin connector sussed out no problems.. The i come across this 4 pin socket which looks to use the typical power socket you connect to the back of a Harddrive/Optical drive/Floppy... that says PCIe power and the manual says use, as and when ,necessary..
So my question is.. when do i need to use this?? with a single PCie graphics card or ONLY if two are installed?
