Hello,
I own a MSI motherboard and is was wondering if it necessary to connect the 2 power connections at the mobo?
I have a CPU_PWR1 connection (8pin) and a CPU_PWR2 connection (4pin).
Currently i only have connnected the CPU_PWR1 (8pin) connection.
Do i need to connect the PWR2 (4pin) connection also?
I can't find this in the manual if it also needs to be connected...
As i mentioned it's currently connected with the PWR1 (8pin) and it's working, but i don't know if this could creat any sort of problems?
This is the setup i use;
Motherboard: MSI X470 Gaming PLUS
Processor: AMD 2700x 3.7 Ghz ~ OC 4.2 Ghz WC be quit! Silent loop 360mm
GPU: GIGABYTE AORUS GeForce RTX 2080 AORUS XTREME WATERFORCE 8G
RAM: 16GB Corsair Vengeance 3000 LPX
SSD: 500 GB Samsung EVO 850
Windows 10 Pro 64bit
Case: Corsair Graphite 780T
PSU: EVGA Supernova 1000G2 (80PLUS Gold)
Keyboard: Corsair K70 RGB MK.2 Cherry MX Red
Mouse: Steelseries rival 300 black
Mousepad: Corsair
Monitor: Asus MG278Q 144Hz 2560 x 1440
Monitor 2: BenQ XL2720T 120Hz 1920x1080
