This was my first build and after buying this power supply - http://www.amazon.co.uk/ACE-750W-PSU-12cm-Red/dp/B006FUTT38/ref=sr_1_1?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1347657250&sr=1-1 - for £20 I was worried. It turns out my worries were not dumbfounded, though it was my fault for not looking further into the matter. I did not realise the connectors that I would need, and looked simply at the wattage. I attempted to build the computer and the fans kept turning on for a split second and then turning off, the speaker did not make a beep either.
This 750w power supply comes with the following connectors
4 x Sata
3 x Peripheral 4 Pin
1 x 4 Pin ( I am assuming for CPU )
1 x 6 Pin ( I am assuming for pci-e, it was red if that helps where all other connectors were black)
However in order for the CPU to work and my ECGA GeForce GTX 560 to work I require :
3 x Sata (any more will not be used, but are welcome)
4 x Molex Peripheral 4 pin (for the case fans)
1 x CPU 4+4 Pin (I kept trying to plug the 6pin into the 8pin slot on my motherboard, not realising that this was a PCI-E pin)
4 x 6 Pin PCI-E (To run 2 gfx cards in SLI, I only have one atm but will be upgrading to SLI at some point in the future)
Idealy like this one - http://www.coolermaster.com/product.php?product_id=6643http://www.coolermaster.com/product.php?product_id=6643 - but with one more Peripheral 4 pin as the case I bought comes with 4 fans, each requiring a 4 pin.
Could any one please help me with finding a decent, yet affordable, power supply with these connectors. It did not even occur to me that I might have bought a power supply without the correct connectors. Thanks in advance.
