    A Psu Guide By me.How To Test Your PSU
    Well maybe you could start using it as a 'test' PSU. To test your fans, cold cathodes or other modding stuff whenever you want, without having to boot up your PC. Now you might be thinking that this wouldn't be a problem, just plug in the power cable of the PSU and start the air/light show.. right?

    Now first start searching for an ATX Power Supply Unit.
    This is the motherboard connector 20 pin

    2nd we need a paper clip or wire.Please make sure your PSU isn't plugged in while doing this mod! You might get a shock!

    Overall this is a very easy mod, just search for the connector with the green wire and insert an end from the paperclip. Then pick out one of the connectors with a black (ground) wire and insert the other end of the paperclip.

    After this cover the psu connector 20 pin with some tape, just to be safe in case anyone or anything touches it..

    Now plug in the power cable of your PSU.. and start running!

    There are molex connectors around that are designed not to require tools for mounting, IIRC.

    Cheers
