Hi, im currently upgrading my power supply from 500w to 750w as my graphic card (GTX 1080) is underpowered.

Need to know if this cable is the correct one for converting the 24 pin to 12 pin to fit the acer mother board.

Thanks!,

Zack

    Hi,
    Sorry, I am not familiar with the kind of upgrade you are doing, so you have to wait for someone else to chime in.

    That should be the right cable.
    Always post the following characterisitcs of the device:
    -Model number
    -Part number(not required, but helpful)
    -CPU
    -GPU
    -Operating system

    Helios 300 and Nitro 5 users DO NOT update the BIOS to version 1.22 if you don't want the keyboard's backlight to turn off after 30 seconds even when the device is plugged in.
