Motherboard + Power Supply

Hi All,

If a motherboard have a 4 pin cpu power connector, I would need to get a power supply with the 4 pin cpu power connector?

For Example this motherboard: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130730

This Power Supply: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139048&cm_re=corsair_600w-_-17-139-048-_-Product

Does that mean this power supply will not work for the motherboard since it doesn't have the 4pin cpu power connector?

Any information is appreciated. Thank you!

No, you can use it. The 8 pin cpu connector splits into 2 - 4pin connectors. Use 1 - 4 pin for the motherboard connector.
