That is exactly my thinking as well, but Logue stated above that when he connects his 2nd power plug using the 4 pin his mobo does NOT boot. He has to remove the plug in order to boot normally, which is strange to me....

EDIT: I think Logue is commenting on the 4 pin Molex connector, but not sure now... lol
