Hello, if you read this you might be amazed by my ignorance. I didn't find any answer to my questions anywhere, maybe because nobody never found it difficult to solve. I have a problem with my PSU composed of :
- a Meanwell EPP-500-12 (not that I need that much power, but it gives 320 W without a dedicated fan, that didn't seem overkill to me if I get a GPU in the future).
- a Arch Daemon G-Unique.
Of course I need to connect both, The DC input wiring of the G-Unique is a "30 cm, modular, 4pin Power DIN (Kycon KPJX-PM-4S)". That goes normally with a Kycon , which I forgot to buy with the rest of the stuff.
I could just go back on Digikey.com or Mouser.com to Buy but I am in France and last time I used these websites, I had to pay 25 $ of transport and 40 of american exportation taxes. That little 2 $ KPPX-4P thing would cost me around 25 $ at least and I can't find it in Europe.
So I guess It would be possible to just take of the female part and put another connector instead or maybe even a simple Wago ( I don't know if you know what it is if you are american), since the Meanwell EPP-500-12 ends up in just 2 M3 screw terminals.
I guess it would be possible but I wanted to ask you guys before to do anything.
I know that at this point of the PSU, once the EPP-500-12 did its job, we got DC current at 12 volts, but is it still polarised, should I cared about it when changing the connectors, and how to check which is the + and which is the - ? I just see 2 black wires on the G-Unique.
For information, if you think it changes anything, here is the build :
- Gigabyte 470i Aorus pro ax
- Intel 10300T
- Samsung evo 970 ssd M2 PCIe 500go
- Corsair vangeance 2*8gb LPX 2666 Mhz RAM
- No GPU yet
- J-Hack Pure X case
I learned a lot by makingthese past weekswith this first build, now I reached my limits, thanks to those who will help me with that.
