Hey! I'm planning on getting a AMD 64 3000+ Venice 939 Pin Processor with either Epox, Jetway or ASUS SLi board. If I don't go SLi I'll probably go DFI, Epox or MSI. All of these motherboards being nforce 4 ultra/sli chipsets.

I'm going to get a eVGA 6800 256MB GDDR3 PCI-E graphics card with 1024 Mb (2X512) Patriot Memory Dual Channel (Timings 2-2-3-5 T1 I believe) I been looking at numerous power supplies for this system. And I found a couple that I might get.

XCLIO XClio 450BL ATX 450W Power Supply 115/230 V UL, CUL, TUV, CB, VDE, FIMKO, DEMKO, NEMKO, SEMKO - Retail

FSP Group (Fortron Source) AX450-PN ATX12V 450W Power Supply 115/230 V NEMKO, TUV, CSA, IEC, UL, CE - Retail

Now the Xclio and FSP also, but it looks like the FSP is only 20 pin? What are the 4 additional pins I see in the picture? Is that to make it 24 pins? A converter? Which one would you recommend for my setup. I notice the FSP is dual 12v rail @ 18A to make 36 A total while the Xclio is 32 A total.

Thank You
