My mobo had a black plug in the power connector.Should i remove it and use all 24 or not?

What are the benifits of 24 pin?

If you have a 24-Pin motherboard and 24-Pin PSU, then yes you should use it. The question is, why wouldnt you use it?

Uh, if you dont use all 24 pins, you will have problems. The benefits of 24 pins is that it will work right If you use only 20 on a 24 pin mobo, you will run into some major problems.

Yes, plug in all the power slots the mobo has room for.

There should be the 24-Pin and an additional 4-Pin slot, make sure both of them are plugged in.
