I have the same power supply and case. rather rusty at putting things together... hoping I didn't get the wrong psu For your case,,, yes, you got the wrong power supply. Which is not to say you can't get it to work, it's just a little tougher. The cables on that power supply are too short, thick and stiff. You can look for an extension for the four pin connector, or you can cut one from an old power supply and solder it on to yours. That's what I did with mine. I also had to remove the fan from the hard drive / power supply bay 'cause the cable couldn't make the sharp turn out and up into the case. The 20 pin cable is j u s t barely long enough, thank god. |
