Hello everyone, I just registered a little while ago and so far this seems like a very good forum
. I'll start my stay here with a question: I am just getting into the hardware side of PC's, and have made three upgrades(PSU, GPU, and CPU). I am about to upgrade my PSU and GPU again. This will be th first time I have owned a dual 12V rail PSU though. I was wondering how the voltages are dispersed among the PSU connectors. I was thinking that all voltages are used on the white connectors, but the component only receives the voltages it uses, and the same. The only reason I say this is because I was curious earlier and tried plugging my video card into a different white connector on my single 12V rail PSU. Both of them seemed to power the card equally well, but to be safe I plugged the other connector back in instead. I really like to understand things, it just gives me a great deal of comfort. If anyone can answer this I would appreciate it. I really look forward to learning a lot of stuff from this forum.
Thanks and Regards.
