Alloneword Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 I have the HX750 and was looking at upgrading to a Z97 XPOWER AC motherboard and in this review here http://www.guru3d.com/articles_pages/msi_z97_xpower_ac_motherboard_review,2.html right at the bottom the last pic talks about 6 pin or 8 pin connector, is this just for extra power for video cards or does it relate to the cpu or does the normal 4 pin need to be used? I will be running of video from the CPU so will not have any video cards installed. All1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
