Hello 

I am looking for some help finding a 1U power supply, I got a Ablecom SP262-1S. Which has one 4 pin for the cpu. But with the motherboard I have, do I need 8. 

This will be used for a opnsense router in the future

The maximum w/h/d 100mm, 40mm, 240mm

Its going inside a Supermicro SC-512L chassi

So I could use 4 pin in a 8 pin connector? Have ordered a i3 9100F.

Motherboard is Supermicro X11SCL-F 

Absolutely. Usually just need the 4pin closer to the CPU, but I don't actually see any CPU power sockets on that board...

Thats the exact board I ordered, bottom left 8pin, what do you mean 4pin closest to the cpu? 

Oh! In my pic it's covered by a label. Thanks! I genuinely was confused how a mobo didn't have a CPU power port

For which side to plug in on, try the 4 pin closer to the ram (an 8 pin is just 2 4 pins bonded together)

So you are telling me it doesnt need ground?

The EPS12 is just 2 ATX12s mirrored. You will be plugging into pins 1,2,5,6. 1 and 2 are ground, 5 and 6 are +12V.
