i just got a bit confused
the agp specification needs those extra 4 pins as a separate connector
thats under the p4 spec
ur asus mobo will have an EZ plug feature which will allow u to use ur normal molex ( 4 pin power connector ) from ur psu for those extra 4 pins rather than the standardised square design
so in short
no
u dun need one
but i would recommend a new onw cuz im sure ur psu will be 300w or below

that 24Pin conector is a STRICT requirement only for the Newer Intel LGA775 socket CPUs...
there's no Asus A8n-E dlx mobo, r u gonna buy the A8N-SLI Deluxe ?
the one in which u can put 2 gfx cards? if yes, then that board requires u to plug in a 4-pin HDD connector,the adapter comes with the board...
The non-SLI A64 boards will work on the "normal" 20Pin Psu that r widely avlbl,but b sure to get a good quality PSU like the Powersafe 400W which is fer 1750 i think, or get the Antec 350W which is lik 2k....
BUt if u ARE going to buy the SLI board then get atleast a 500W Powersafe PSU ( 3.2k )

hey
asus site recommends the followin -
ATX 12V 2.0 350W , for a Fx-55 , 512 DDR*2 , CPU cooler , NV 6800gt*2 , HDD*2 , ODD/RW*2
well this is an ideal specification n a antec 350 W n upwards would be sufficient . or may go 4 a VIP unit
this brings me 2 the " wattage myth " , exactly like the "ghz myth " ( else how can u explain a 3500+ wipping the *** of a intel 3.4 , although therez a diff of a cool 1.2ghz ) . 1 should go 4 a known(branded) psu instead of ne generic 1 coz a 350W supply may be better than an arbit 500W psu , due 2 the internal losses (eg heat ) . vot i m sayin here is exactly vot SWATKAT sayz above , n do check up the link *techreport.com/reviews/2004q4/psus/index.x?pg=1
as 4 the 24 pin connector , suggest visit the link *www.neoseeker.com/Hardware/faqs/kb/12,17.html , although itz supposed 2 be 4 P4 , but still might work . as it sayz can buy a 4pin molex connector that converts your regular 4pin molex power to a 4pin square connector for your motherboard
the ezplug feature is not 4 ur regular supply , but is 2 b connected if u run a SLI setup
hmmmm , m thinkin of buying the board 2
CHEARS !!!!!!!
