Strange PSU Connector

So recently my power supply basically exploded...

Which wouldn't normally be a huge problem, I have a backup power supply.

But that one won't work...

My mobo has a weird connector that I can't find on any PSUs anywhere.

A 10 pin atx power cable in addition to the 24 pin one.
I'll attach pictures.

Does anyone know where to find these?
If I can't just replace the PSU I'll need to get a new mobo and a new CPU.

Tried calling Lenovo customer support.
No help there.

Guy put me on hold for 12 minutes and redirected me to a phone number that isn't available from my location...

What model Lenovo pc do you have? I don't think the motherboard has a 24pin connector. From what I'm seeing online its only a 10 pin connector. And the only thing available would be a convertor to go from 24 to 10.

It's a ThinkStation S20.

Not sure why it only just occurred to me to look at the model number for the PSU, but it's an AcBel FS8003.

And yeah, my motherboard is really weird... It uses the 10 pin for the CPU, a 4 pin for the GPU, and it also uses a 24 pin.

If thats accurate would you think the link I found would be suitable.. I see a warning in the spec info that the PSU stays on unless physically unplugged..?

Here is a replacement from ebay for that model, but its used.

I think you are pretty much SOL on this though. One of the reasons you should never buy proprietary garbage pc's. Dell used to have something like that back in the days too.

Yeah I heard that too but he still needs a 10 pim connector along with the 24pin.
