I had been using a simple ATX power supply with a single 12V rail of a lower wattage.But now i want to buy 500 WATTS EXTREME POWER (RP-500-PCAR) power supply which contains CPU 4+4 Pin x 1 (i take it as two 12V rails).
I can see only one 4 pin socket in my motherboard and on some other mobo's on net.Where will i connect that second 12V rail when there is no space for it on the motherboard.
I want to know for what purpose it is there and if I don't connect it with anything, will i get the full 500 watts even then.
Following is the website for further details on this power supply. **broken link removed**
