Hello, everything is in the title. What is the difference between the 4-pin ATX connectors on motherboards and the 8-pin EPS connectors on other motherboards?
For a Phenom II x4 955 Black Edition 125W, does this motherboard fit the bill?

    Hello
    The EPS 8 pins is actually a doubled 4 pins ATX. The latter is called “P4”.

    For the motherboard, it's fine, but new chipsets are being released right now, the AMD series 8xx, so the motherboard you've linked is becoming outdated.

    So what's the difference with the Series 7?
