    Other PSUs do have molex and in some cases floppy connectors too.

    My SilverStone DA 800w does and my Corsair hx620w too.

    Still outdated tech which is why most don't carry them

    Off the top of my head, the Corsair TX line has floppy connectors. Almost all PSUs have Molex connectors though.

    Just buy whatever PSU suits your price/wattage needs, you can grab a Molex-to-floppy adapter: http://www.directron.com/idpowconad.html


    does a ultra 450w psu have molex and floppy connectors? im thinking of buying one

    dont get an ultra ,instead go for a corsair or Pc and power colling ,Psu.

    they have all the connectors you need and are much more dependable than the ultras dismal track record...

    my 2 cents.
