Does this power supply have a 24-pin motherboard connector or a 20 +4 pin connector?

The CX600M that I purchased has a 20+4 pin ATX plug, so if you have a 20 pin OR 24 pin ATX plug on your motherboard you should be fine. I do not see any reason why the CX500M would not have the same configuration.

Can't say. The only Corsair power supply I bought from Amazon was completely dead when I received it. Had to return it and buy another brand power supply (which worked fine).

It has a 20+4 pins connector, it looks like 24 but the 4 can detach making it 20.

PSU needs to have a 24 pin motherboard power connector. and a 4 pin CPU power connector. Any with those connectors should work fine.

This power supply will properly run a motherboard with either a 20 or a 24 pin power connection.

Sorry for the delay: This power supply is model H305N-00. The motherboard connector is 2" (up until now, I thought these were a standard size).

My power supply's have an 8 pin cable that breaks into 2, 4 pin connecters, so you'd only use 4 of the 8 pins

Sorry GVNNY, My error! Yes! The power supply has ATX and micro ATX connectors

Only one 6-pin. If you can afford a top gfx that requires an 8-pin connector, get a better psu... I've used 9800GT and 660 GTX with this without any issue. ps: I bought this psu for $40 and the current price is not reasonable. Look for a better model and better deal.

In the Centronics side, there are 36 pins but in a smaller connector. (I saw Kathleen's answer, 25 pin is on the PC side, the older PCs with a parallel port.)

Hi, This is a pretty good power supply. It has 6 SATA power connections, 1 Floppy connector, 1 20+4 Main Motherboard connector (the 4 pin connector attaches to the remaining four pins on the motherboard's 24 pin connector), and 6 4-Pin Molex type connectors for additional peripherals. I've got my power supply almost fully loaded with devices and my PC works wonderfully. Hope this helps.

If the PSU has an 8-pin ATX connector, it automatically has a 4-pin. The 4-pin connector you need is half of the 8-pin so you just wouldn't use the other half. It's the same concept as a 20-pin motherboard connector and a 24-pin motherboard connector.

Your motherboard has an 8 pin CPU power connector. The power supply unit has (one) 4x4 pin. You'll need a power supply with an 8 pin connector, or one with (two) 4x4 pins.

no this is 1155 that cpu is 1156, and the power connector is 24 pin not 8 or 4

If you don't see a 4 pin connector you most likely have an 8 pin connector divided into two 4 pin connectors. Use that instead. Your psu has to have a 4 pin or 8 pin motherboard connector though

If I remember (motnths ago) it was a 20 pin with a 4 pin optional. I believe if you use the spare, you are limiting yourself to onboard GFX (it's a 300 watt so its pretty understandable)

There is two pin connector near bottom. But I do not know it is power connector or not. I do not use it. This card does not really use a lot power. Normal PCI slot is enough.
