And it works?? I'll be damned. I'd plug in the ATX as well since the PSU is rated for currents on each voltage. If you pull all current through the 12V you're not using the PSU's full potential.Originally posted by zoey
Are you sayin that the reqular atx and the 4 pin (12v) both get connected to the mobo, because I only use the 4 pin. Am I doing it wrong?

Nope, if it works fine.
Some boards do require two connecters, although I saw this on dual CPU systems...not solo.
