What plug wire goes to my ATX12V? Asus M4A785-M & Rosewill 630w ps?
Hi. Im building a system and a bit confused of what wire to plug to my ATX12V 4 pin connector.
My Rosewill 630watt power supply (model RG630-S12) has a single wire with 2 plugs. One plug says 4+ and the other plug says 4P. Only one plug connector, so which plug do I use?
The motherboard is a Asus M4A785-M. The board powers up, and works with either the 4+ or 4P plug, but does it matter?
Thank you!

It comes with two 4-pin connectors in case the motherboard had an 8-pin CPU connector. If it did, you would simply plug both in. But since your motherboard only requires a 4-pin CPU connector, then either of those 4-pin connectors will work. Doesn't matter which one, they're exactly the same.
If you haven't bought that power supply yet, then I highly recommend you avoid Rosewill and stick to a better brand. Such as Corsair or Antec. The wattage listed on the box of Rosewill power supplies is always exaggerated, and not even its true wattage. This is the case with all cheap, sub-par brands. Low quality internal components, and exaggerated wattage. And people wonder why they crap out left & right, 2 weeks later.
