Pick me a new PSU

[rinaldo00]

I am replacing a Topower Powerbird 1100 W PSU for my HP Blackbird PC.

The problem is the PC is using a custom cable, but according to this link I can use a standard cable.

Apparently I can use 2x 4pin molex are fine. standard. Can anyone tell me EXACTLY what I need?

Thanks.

The single SATA power 15p plug should work just fine. From the limited shots I can find of the case, all the power inputs seem to piggyback to the HDDS.

Below is a picture of my two PSUs, the top picture is my old PSU, a Topower PowerBird 1100W the bottom picture is the replacement, a Corsair HX 1050.

I used to have my SATA daughter boad plugged into the 12v3 SATA/IDE connector on the Topower, but I plugged it into the blue 6+2 PCI-E and it sparked. What port n the Corsair would work?

Thanks

You already killed one drive using the wires from your old PSU in the new one, why tempt fate again. Just use the wires that came with your new PSU.

And plug it where? The only cable that fits (old cable or new) plugs into the blue PCI-E port
