socket on the motherboard.
a
If your motherboard has a 24-pin socket, you may connect the 24-pin main
power cable from the TX650W/TX750W directly to your motherboard.
b
If your motherboard has a 20-pin socket, you must detach the 4-pin cable
from the 24-pin connector, and then plug the 20-pin cable onto your
motherboard without connecting the 4-pin connector.
4
The TX650W/TX750W has an 8-pin +12V; also know as "EPS12V" cable.
a
If your motherboard has an 8-pin +12V socket, connect the 8-pin cable
directly to your motherboard.
b
If your motherboard has a 4-pin socket, detach the 4-pin from the 8-pin cable,
and then plug the correct 4-pin directly to your motherboard.
WARNING: The detachable 4-pin from the 24-pin main connector is not a "P4" or "+12V"
