4 Pin Plug for a 8 Pin MB Plug

Thanks for all the responses. I called Gigabyte and talked to tech support and they recommedned against using a 4 pin PS on their 8 pin MB's due to the power requirements (current) of a Quad core chip. I really liked the Giga boards and used them in a few previous builds. But I have a new PS...

4 Pin Plug for a 8 Pin MB Plug

Mother of all A/V Receiver deals - Yamaha, Onkyo, Outlaw starting from 145

If the title is not as specific as you want- don't click on the tread. Quit whining and bashing posters if everything isn't as perfect as you want it. It seems people are too lazy to actually click a link and read the deal specs in the first post of a tread. Pussies.

I used "Goo be Gone" and a paper towel to get the glue off my monitor. I then just wiped the whole screen with a damp paper towel to clean it up. Worked perfectly, no damage and squeaky clean. Took about 5 min.
