performance gain or loss? wala... its there to provide additional current traces when using higher wattage processors or extreme overclocking... the same concept with the atx 20+4 pin power connector...

AFAIK ok ranang 4pin kung di ka in to grbeng overclocking. 300watts mn cgru ng EPS 8pin, padung na sa imu cpu para kan.on niya kung i overclock mn xa. correct me if im wrong, kay ako mobo 600watts iya ma kaon pra daw pang overclock nia tu a EPS 8pin headers. but way too much na ang 600watts pra procie hehe

Ok ra na bro ang 4 Pins. dagan raman sad gani ang 24Pins nga Mobo using 20Pins nga PSU. unless mag OC ka...
