4 pin vs 8 pin +12v on NF570 SLI Board?

[PCBliss]

My Biostar NF570 SLI board has an 8 pin +12v connector and my PSU has a 4 pin +12v connector. Will this work ok? 4 pin plugs into the 8 pin just fine. I am running two 7800GTs in SLI

Yeah, that's no problem.

The other 4 pins aren't for GFX, but for your CPU. I doubt this will affect your OC in any way, if you choose to do so.

It should be more stable, especially with higher power CPUs or when OCing, with the 8-pin connector. You can buy an adapter that adapts a pair of Molex connectors into the "other" 4 pins, I think.

Anyone have a link to the adapter so I an buy one?

Don't need - I use a 4 pin and I overclocked an AMD X2 3600+ to 3000 (333 X 9).

Yeah I was more wondering about the SLI part. But sounds like I will be fine
