Hello,

actually i have a very strange question in my mind.

can anyone tell me whether a 20 pins psu would suite in a 24 pins motherboard?

i guess the answer is no but i have tried one yesterday and it works perfectly there is four pis which are not connected but the computer works perfectly..

so my question is that is there any risk with it that it fries my motherboard or the psu?

yes of course it would suite and it would not fry the motherboard so nothing to worry about
