tagan psu question

just got a tagan psu of members market and come to build my new rig,

its has a 20 pin ATX connector, and a 4 pin connector which slides onto it to make it 24pin

and then 2 connectors with black + yellow wires 4pin marked p4

my question is which 4 pin connector do i put into my board, as its a 20pin board,

is it one of the one marked p4 or 4 pin one that slides into the 20pin to make it 24pin ?

its a 480w ug1

Do not plug in the 4-pin that goes on to the 20 pin. It is wired differently from the other 4-pin which you should use.

so i should use one of the connectors marked p4 in the 4pin power connector on the board ?

yes, you will notice that the black 4pin will slot together with the 20pin as you say, ive got the 580w and you connect the other 4pin 'P4'

also be aware they SLi/Crossfire config, but dont give enough power for 2x x1900 due to massive amp usage, thats for anybody who is thinking of having one
