[irpersian20]

Hi
When the eight-pin connector and the four pin connector should be used?
It depends on what it is?

First i used 8 PIn connector but system don't start.
and i used 4 pin connector and system work.
It's right?

Thanks

Are you referring to the 8-pin CPU power connector? You need that plugged in to start the computer.

Does the connector from the PSU look like this? 8-pin CPU connector

The 4-pin connector could be the PCI power cable but can you tell us what the PSU is?

I use (4+4)8 pin plugged in motherboard.but don't start system.
I force 4 pin plugged and system started.
Which is part of the problem?

PCIe power connectors are either 6-pin for 75W or 6+2 for 150W.

Why not start at eight pin?
Please help me.

If your computer runs on 4 out of the 8 pins then just leave it alone and have a working computer. I remember that I had this weird problem too but after waiting a few months the motherboard decided that I could then plug in the rest of the 8-pin connector.

What can I do to fix it?
I replaced the power supply?

 

[irpersian20]

So i should be start system with eight pins?
Start system with four pins wrong?

When you use 4 pins does your computer work fine or are there problems?

When I use the four pin PC works without a problem.
But if I use the eight pin system will not start

Are you 100% certain you are using the 8-pin EPS12V connector? It looks very similar to a 8-pin PCIe power connector but on the PCIe power connector, 12V and GND pins are on opposite side from EPS12V. If you used the wrong connector, the 12V lines are being shorted to ground on the motherboard.

Yes, i use 8-pin(4+4) Connector, but just system started with 4-pin
Power or motherboard have a problem?

Your computer works with the 4-pin ATX12V cable. I would simply plug that in and call it a day.
