I'll start right off at my problem.
I bought a Corsair CX500M power supply and a GTX750ti video card to upgrade what I have at the moment and eventually would purchase the rest of the pieces.
My current PC is something that I got from work, it's a HP elite 8300 desktop-something, the inside is not 100% like the one here but it gives a pretty good estimate on what mine looks like.
So what is the issue?
To my huge surprise, there is no 24-pin connector inside it. Something that is very new to me, even though watching Linus for years now.
There is only a 8- and 6-pin connector on the motherboard.
so my question is, if I could safely use the corsair 500W PSU and from there connect a 8 and 6 pin to the board and also add the GTX750ti to it.
Or would that perhaps damage anything. Also I assume I would have to short out the 24pin to get it to turn on.
My assumption is that the board was never built to withstand any powerful components?
Anyhow, thank you for reading my problem, cheers!
