That is not a bad PSU, there are better but it will work fine.

If you are talking about this adapter https://www.moddiy.com/products/IBM-Lenovo-PSU-Main-Power-24%252dPin-to-14%252dPin-Adapter-Cable-(30cm).html you just have to use it, no need for anything special.

The PSU is decent and has enough wattage. I haven't used that exact adapter but have done a 24 to 12 pin years back and had no issues. Just be certain you have the correct 24 to 12 pin adapter as some have pins in non standard locations. If that one linked above isn't exactly right that moddify site makes it easy to find the right one.

Since its Lenovo I think its likely a 24 to 14 pin adapter you need not a 24 to 12 pin. You may want to verify the pin counts on the motherboard.

Where are you located? This PSU seems made for 230V. It's not going to work on 110V, so not in North America.

Out of curiosity are you using http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/ ? Do the questions make it over to the US site? I haven't really payed that close attention.

Thanks guys. I assumed they would segregate them by region. I have to be careful to ask location when answering questions.
