As you know, most motherboards use long 24-pin connector to deliver power to the motherboard.

At least some newer Acer PO3 models use short 6-pin connector (ATX12VO).

When I google your current Acer mobo and look at the pictures, your current mobo uses 6-pin connector.

Before ordering anything double check the cabling and look inside of your case. The difference is easy to spot.

You'll need a new PSU.
