Motherboard has no cpu power connector

I'm using a motherboard (Fujitsu D3220-A12) from a prebuild pc, but I can't find a cpu power connector, the original pc came with a psu that had only one motherboard connector, and everything was powered from that working fine. Right now I'm upgrading this pc and I'm going to buy a new psu, but I'm not sure if it will work properly, because I'm not sure if the motherboard connector from the psu I'm probably going to buy ( cooler master b500) is powerfull enough.
What should I do?

Can I buy a normal psu with everything working fine?

the PSU should be fine, most manufacturers have 4 pin to 6 pin CPU connectors so you should be fine.

Can you post a picture of the mb? I could only find info about the D3220-B Model. Yours seem to be quite unique?!

If you find any grammar or spelling errors please fill out entry permit A38, thanks.

My Motherboard model is quite different, instead of the 4 pin next to the vga, it has the 24 pin.

That board uses a proprietary power connector. It's right next to the CPU.

So I can't use a 24 to 16 pin connector?

Probably no, it might be wired differently.

Never seen such an adapter.

 

You could try building your own, if you're up for it.

 

It will mean cutting up your current fujitsu power supply cables though.

 

You'll need a good multimeter, a 24 pin atx power extension, some side cutters, heat shrink tubing, solder and a soldering iron, patience and a bit of luck.

 

Get out your multimeter first. Have your motherboard in it's original case with the original power supply. With the computer on, check the voltages on each pin of the connectors on the motherboard from the power supply. Make lots of notes of which pin has which voltage.

 

Once you're confortable that you've mapped out the connectors properly, go ahead and cut the male end off of your ATX extension, cut the motherboard power connectors off of the power supply and just match the wires from the atx power supply to the wires that you mapped out from the fujitsu motherboard connectors. Make the connections, solder them, cover all the joints with heatshrink and plug 'er in.

 

Cross your fingers and hit the power button; if you see smoke, you did something wrong! lol

 

I've left my instructions intentionally vague. If you don't know enough to fill in the blanks - that's a good sign that you shouldn't be trying this.
