Hi all just joined to discusse an issue. Probably easy answer but I need one. I'm resupplying my power with a Enhance 500w the issue is I have 2 6 pin connectors and an 8 pin connector coming off the power supply but the Mother Board has an 4 pin female connector coming off of it. I have looked for an addapter that I cannot seem to find. I need to got from 6 or 8 to 4. The Board is MCP61pm-hm 1.0B Enhance model ENP5150GH. I'll be waiting! Thanks!
 
The 8 pin should split into 2-4pin connectors. The 6 pin is for pcie graphic cards.
 
What is the exact model number of the power supply? We.need to get a better idea of what you have.
 
In the first post. Enhance ENP-5150GH is what it says. It's 500w. Both 6 pin and 8 pin are 12V actually 11.95V to be exact so as long as I splice the old 4 pin male plug in correctly it should work but I wanted to be able to have the ability to use the power source without damaging the harness for future use if I want on another MB. I think that I will splice one of the 6 pin harnesses since there are 2, then one will still remain.

Sorry about that, i posted from phone and didn't notice you listed it in your original post. Yeah, it looks like the 8 pin can't be separated so you will either have to get a different psu or use something like this adapter to go from 4 pin molex to 4 pin cpu.

I don't recommend rewiring the harness.
