As per title, I am doing a build with the M gaming MB but it appears to have two separate CPU power sockets, an ATX 2x2 and an ATX 4x2
My corsair 650w PSU has no 2x2 leads but does have a 4x2 lead. However, when connected to the 4x2 socket the PSU keeps going on and off.
So I'm.thinking that the 2x2 is the actual proper socket. I would love to know what the two ate actually doing there as my previous build only had one CPU power socket.
I have looked at the MB manual and it says very little about the two sockets. It does have a little arrow on the 2x2 so this would indicate something. Perhaps I have to stick half of the 4x2 onto the 2x2 but it all seems a little heath Robinson to me.
