wtf PSU? - Hardware & Software

umm does psu come with a power cord cause mine didnt? antec 520w

odd... use the cable from your last PC. it should work without problems

this is my first desktop can i buy one? would it matter ? usually have a laptop

oh.. I think you can buy one. Maybe go to radioshack or some place that sells PC equipment

so just any power cord for a pc is fine?

You can buy one from any PC or electronics store. As long as it has a 3-pin plug that fits your PSU, it'll be fine.

phew thanks dude

if you looked at the box on the thread where you posted like 2 pictures, it said, no power cable included. Look again

^ This, Antec's "green" PSUs don't come with power cords because that somehow makes them more "green".

I got like 10 extras around here some where that I don't even use or need.

Especially considering that people without an extra power cable will have to go out and buy one which will probably come in plastic packaging.

PSU cables are actually pretty universal. I used to use the cable from one of my old printers, and even one from my dad's PA system. Parents got mad at me though, so I had to put them back. :v:
