Need help asap!

I just put together a computer and my motherboard has a 4 pin female atx power connector, but my power supply has a 8 pin male connector. I need an adapter that changes the power supply 8 pin into a 4 pin to plug into the motherboard. Its similar to this, but the opposite.

you can directly connect the 8pin on the 4pin, if nothing is blocking the extra 4pins hanging over the end(if the mobo is fairly new, you will not have problems with this). check your mobo manual, it will say at some point which part of the 8pin psu connector you have to connect to the 4pin mobo connector.

That isn't possible on my board unfortunately
Please, somebody must have a solution

then, as u understand, all you need is a 4pin extension cable

well, got it figured out, the 8 pin splits into a normal 4 pin, it just doesn't say anything in the manual, thanks thermaltake....
