just bought a ASUS Xonoar D2x soundcard, but i cannot connect it to my psu.. no cabels fit.
got a cooler master silent hybrid pro 1300 watt..
the only cabel that i have that fits, just bends the hell out of the contact on the card.. what do do ?
 
Solution
That actually is a known issue, the pins are easily bent, which's not good. There's isn't any other way of powering up the card. It'll just shut down when it runs out of power. You have to install it using the connector from floppy only.
It uses a floppy 4 pin power connector. Something like this:

The pins on the card can be easily bent. Your PSU has a floppy 4 pin connector.
