123-GM-0550-Y1. I miss read the specs on this psu and the only problem I have is it's missing a cpu connector. Can I buy a Y splitter for the cpu connection for dual CPUs. Or will it overload the pins. Thanks in advance

    There are Y-splitters out there, but might overload the connectors/pins/wires..I definately would not try it..Actually I'm thinking that you may have made the wrong PSU wattage choice to begin with for a system with dual CPUs..Use the OuterVision Power Supply Calculator and see what it recommends.

    There are power adapters you can search for and buy such as "Dual Molex to CPU/ATX12V" and "Dual SATA to CPU/ATX12V" and "PCIe to CPU/ATX12V" if you have any extra connectors for them, but I would return/exchange the 550 GM if that's possible, or not, and get a suitable PSU with the connectors you need either way.

    Posting all your system hardware might be helpful.
