Hi,

Does anyone know where I can pick up something like this

in Dublin? New motherboard and processor arrived yesterday but the power connector is just about a half inch or so too short!

I don't see it on peats website but I hope to get in to peats or maplins. Any other suggestions would be welcome.

Thanks.

I think I saw them in Maplins in Blanchardstown when I was picking up an adapter, you should ring around a few Maplins & Peats, one of the two should have one

Thanks for that. I'm near a pc world but I don't hold out much hope of them having it or for reasonable price. A trip to Blanch might be called for. I hate to be stopped by one little cable!

I got mine out in the blanch about 3weeks maplins sell them.

PC World should have an 8pin extension for about €6 or €8 (I can't remember which). I imagine that should do the job for you.

I saw that in PC world but I don't have 8 pin on the power supply so it wouldn't work. I got to maplins in the city centre yesterday and they had them out on the floor. I was surprised that Peats didn't stock them at all. Anyway all is good now. My new AMD Phenom II 940 is ready to play with at last. Its only been a couple of days but it seemed like eternity!

Thanks for all your help

i done the dangerous thing, and cut the wires, and soldered on my own extension on before wrapping it in insulation tape. done the trick
