Hi there , I don't really know much about computers but decided to change the noisy psu on my PC which is about three years old with a low noise psu from maplins . The problem I have is that although the noisy psu is an atx psu and the psu I've bought is described as an atx psu ( sounds straightforward so far ) on inspection some of the motherboard connector wires are different colours or, the same coloured wires are in different pin positions on the connector . The guy I spoke to at maplins said manufacturers sometimes use different colour coding and it won't make any difference , I'm not sure I'm convinced , and don't want to toast my motherboard . Any advice would be appreciated
