20pin PSU on a 24pin mobo? :\

it'll definitely work...but dunno about overclocking though, but i doubt he'll OC

Its thermaltake's new 24 pin PSU that Chris recommended. Not the older Purepowers

 

[DJ-CHRIS]

Yeah that power supply is like a newer purepower's but with 24 pin

is that better then the stock heatsink btw?

 

[Dark_Sniper*]

yea but i would get something better, the stock is ok for know you should get something better then that later. that HS to me sucks ill post one better.

 

[foreverxyoung]

naw its okay.. its just i had worries cuhz im buying artic silver 5 and iono if i could use that with the stock heatsink...

 

[Dark_Sniper*]

yea dude its thermal paste for the heatsinks it works on all of them your best bet is too save and wait and get a better one in the future. But the stock for venice is good from what people have said.

 

[foreverxyoung]

so.. i CAN use the thermal paste on the heatsink right? i just scrape off the stock thermal and put artic silver on the stock heatsink? how would u recomend doing that?
