hi,

i just bought the Abit NF8 board. My case is the raidmax X-1 case and it came with a 450w PSU, but its connecter is 20 pin, and my mobo has a 24 pin connector. What should i do? This is my first system build so i am a newbie!

You have to get another PSU that has a 24 pin motherboard cable

Check here for everything you need to know about 20 pin PSU's and 24 pin MB's.

Yer ok Just plug it in.

It I think can go in one way only. Thus youll be left with 4 boxframe of empty pins.
