Pin configuration

P1 ATX-Mainboard connector 20+4 pin

Pins 11/ 12/ 23/ 24 are made as separate jacks.
It can be swung away in case of using older Mainboards.

Don´t mix the separate jack with the P4 connector.

EPS/ P4 Mainboard connector 4+4 pin

Depending your mainboard you need an 8pin or 4 pin connector. For that the connector is divisible.
In case of using just the 4pin connector the rest of the connector is without function.

Don´t plug it into another socket on the board.
