G22 0 Posted June 10, 2005 Is it required to connect the EZ_PLUG 4-pin Molex in addition to the ATX12V (4 or 8 pin) for extra power to a DVR card? Also, what is the diff between the 4 and 8 pin ATX12V connectors? My MB has a removable cap over 4 of the connectors and my PSU has both 4 and 8 pin connectors. Extra power for the CPU? Or perhaps for an SLI setup with 2 video cards? I have a PCI-E video card and just wondering if I need to connect both, or if it hurts to have both connected regardless. I have no intention of running 2 PCI-E cards with SLI, even though this card is SLI compatible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thomas 0 Posted June 13, 2005 Generally I've only seen that on SLI boards. But it's probley not going to harm it to plug in all 8. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
