I have a Hiper 580W PSU. This has a P4 power connector rather than the new P8 type. Does anyone know what the difference is? I'll be using a Quad Core 95W 6600 CPU from Intel.

I assume the P8 provides more power to the CPU but do I need this for this CPU/MOBO combination?

I'd hate to have to invest in a new PSU as the one I have is 12 months old and working fine.

Thanks in advance
