Install 24pin and 8pin cables on Pro Series Gold PSU

  • Install 24pin and 8pin cables on Pro Series Gold PSU

Power supplies are really important and crucial for our hardware, and Corsair seems to be providing the proper solution. Having the power supplies is good, but installing them the appropriate way is more important.

This tutorial shows the proper way to install 24pin and 8pin cables on the Professional Series Gold PSUs.

When it comes to excellent performance, quality, reliability, and energy-efficiency, Corsair power supply units (PSUs) are the solution. With a new standard, Corsair Professional Series™ Gold power supplies are completely modular, one of the best features of the AX series.

In this tutorial, you will be shown how to install and connect the 24pins and 8pins cables available on the following Corsair Professional Series Gold PSUs: AX750, AX850 and AX1200.


Install 24pin and 8pin cables on Pro Series Gold PSU #1

What comes with the AX Series PSU

First, be sure that you have the following along with your power supply (the amount of cables varies with the model of your PSU):

1. Corsair AX PSU with protective pouch
2. Cables with carrying bag (amount of cables varies on which model purchased)
3. Users manual
4. Power cable
5. Tie straps/screws to mount PSU to case/case badge

Understand the connectors

The picture below shows the basic design for the AX750/AX850 and AX1200 PSUs. Understand what each group indicated is:

1. Boxed in yellow: 24 Pin connector (both connectors will need to be plugged)
2. Boxed in blue: Peripherals and SATA cables
3. Boxed in Green: EPS connector and PCI E connector

24pin cables connections

As you can see in the below picture, all the cables are labeled to clearly indicate with which power supply they can be used. The correct way to plug the cables is also indicated. Some cables are labeled to specific models only.

The power supplies are normally designed to have 20-24 pin connectors, depending on the requirements of the motherboard. So, if you require only 20 pins, leave the remaining 4 pins (2x2) hanging to the side, and do not try to use these for the EPS 12v connection.

8/4 pin and PCI-E connectors

The power supplies come with different EPS 12v 8/4 pin connectors. If you take a look at the AX1200 model, you will see that they come in a form factor of 8 pins (2x4), and are labeled as “4-4 CPU”. The AX750 and AX850 are slightly different, and come in two different layouts; an 8 pin and two 12 pin plugs. The 8 pin plug is designed only for the EPS 12v connector while the other two 12 pins are used for the PCI-E connectors.

After correctly installing the cables to the power supply unit, plug the other end into the socket of the motherboard. The EPS 12v connector will either require an 8 pin or 4 pin connections, depending on the motherboard. But that`s not a problem as the Corsair power supplies come with both. Connecting the two 4 pins would give you an 8 pin connector if your motherboard requires it, if not; you can use the 4 pin connectors.

Now, once completed, be sure to check everything again to ensure you have done nothing wrong. Then, you can start and enjoy your system.

Ubisoft Ready to work on three films Based on the Game

ReviewEverywhere.blogspot.com
Ubisoft Ubisoft has established the Motion Pictures. Moreover, game publishers will do it if not make a movie based on the best-selling series?

As quoted from Variety, Tuesday (17/05/2011), at least there are three movies that will work with Ubisoft. All three are based on the best-selling game series ever published Ubisoft: Assassins Creed, Splinter Cell and Ghost Recon.

The game will be made in 3D format. "We have worked closely with the producer of Ubisofts games and marketing team to find DNA of every game in order to produce a consistent story," said Jean-Julien Baronnet, head of Ubisoft Motion Pictures.

Ubisoft business that develops its own film studio should be noted carefully. So far, most of the film adaptation of the game has a relatively disappointing results.

By having a special division movie, Ubisoft might be able to maintain the core of a game when adapted to film. Moreover, the series such as Assassins Creed and Splinter Cell already has a line of its own fans.

Here are brief profiles of each of the three series of Ubisofts mainstay, as well as speculation that elements of what will be interesting to be appointed to the big screen.

Assassins Creed
This game series featuring the story of the assassin (assassin) of various ages. Game set in the history of this thick with conspiracies and secret plots, in addition to setting exotic locations which would more sweet as they appear on the big screen.

Splinter Cell
Splinter Cell series focused on the story of a secret agent named Sam Fisher. Action Fisher is more focused on the military side and not the James Bond-style espionage. The location is exotic, secret plots and sophisticated gadgets can be the element of movie that sells.

Ghost Recon
Ghost Recon action game featuring a group of special forces in a mission. Series of this game can be adapted as a war action movie featuring a champion team, such as The Expendables.

Need Time

The process of making the three films is believed to still take a long time. Jean de Rivieres, Senior VP of international marketing & distribution Ubisoft, could only be promised at least one complete screenplay in 2011.

Besides the three big movies, Ubisoft Motion Pictures reportedly is developing an animated series based Raving Rabids. This animated series will have a format with a duration of seven minutes per episode.

Before this Ubisoft has been successfully experimenting with film from the game. For example, Assassins Creed Lineage series that they distribute via the web.

Weird Sound on Computer Startup




Normally the computer will make a sound when it is turned on. Sound is produced because there is a fan in the power supply unit (power supply unit). The fan used to cool the power supply. Noise is also produced from the fan used to cool the processor. Usually both sound will be heard as long as you install the computer.


When you install a computer, hard drive will spin. It will also produce sound but the sound is not continuous. Computers will also be out a "beep" once. These markings start with a good computer. this beep sound if prolonged or repeated, its a sign you have suffered computer hardware and does not work well.


If you want noise can be reduced tu la install the washer on the screw that fasten the fan or hard disk in the computer casing. Just cut only. want to lose sound without doubt no. Another way, open the computer casing and clean the dust that is in the computer. Make sure there is no hair stuck in a fan. Dust and hair may interfere and remove the fan spin loud noise.


If you put the computer on the table, do not forget to put the rubber base to absorb vibration and reduce noise being diverted to the computer table.
