Help! Missing 4 pin Cpu!

[romtec123]

I am missing the 4 pin cpu connector! Pls help because i need it for a E-Gpu For my crappy laptop. The rest of the connectors are Molex / Sata

What e-gpu do you have

You want to use the top four pins of the pictured 8 pin cpu connector.

none of those are cpu connectors. The first one is the 24pin atx and the second/third are PCIe power.

So it is, the +2 pin was on the wrong side of the 6 pin so the pin layout confused me.

Apologies OP, that is very odd can you provide info on the psu or take a picture of the label?

It looks like you need to either change your crappy psu to something more powerful and complete or upgrade your gpu to something that draws more power to fit those 6+2 pins.

The problem with these DIY projects is you can get real far down the garden path and it was far better to just spend the money and replace the computer to something better.

What PSU model is that?

 

Any working PSU has to have CPU power connectors.

 

Its probably lost in the tangle, or if the PSU is modular, you misplaced it.

I dont see it, It should have it because my friend gave it to me because he upgraded his old one.

that doesn't use a four pin power. It uses an 8 pin and a 6 pin.

[-rascal-]

In your picture #2, those are the PCI-E 8-pin / 6-pin connectors that you need for your graphics card.

This looks like you are going to be putting the PSU through a severe crossload scenario of which there is ZERO power draw on the 3.3/5v and a high +12v draw. Your PSU is likely have a group-regulated secondary, as such the loads needs to be within a certain ratio or else the voltage of the +12v will severely drop. Depending on the unit, it may even go out of ATX specification (this is a similar issue with the whole Haswell compatibility with certain PSU but in reverse).

 

You may want to invest in a new PSU that is indy regulated or has DC-DC.

Also, that image you had posted:

 

See that middle cable go down in the middle? Four yellow +12v wires on the side of the clip with four black ground wires on the other side. That is the 8-pin EPS12v connector, and like most PSU that is probably a 4+4 pin connector. If that was the 8-pin PEG connector, the wires will be in reverse with one of the +12v wires as ground instead.

 

Edit: Also, the power port on the EXP GDC adapter that the OP is looking at is rather misleading? Apparently, you need to order and used this adapter with that product if you are power a 220w+ card which requires a 20pin connector (to power it on) and 4 pin CPU connector. http://www.yoybuy.com/en/show/22317263223/?s=t

bro its not like it just got up and walked out on ya, maybe you misplaced it or its simply gone like the wind lOl
