The other connector on the power supply that's new to me is a 6 pin thing labeled "aux". I am reasonably sure it really is a SATA power connector because my power supply is the newest variety ATX12V/ATX2.03, so what else cound it be?Originally Posted by ViRaL1

6-pin rectangle connector would be a PCI-E video card power cable. SATA power is a small flat connector similar in shape to the SATA communication cable but a little wider.

Does it look like an old AT power connector?

That looks like the ATX 12V connector. Not a lot of boards use it. Either I'm reading wrong or their documentation needs to be revised. For number 4 where it talks about Drives and Peripherals Connection, everything is mislabeled. I'll find some pics of mobos with the connector.

This is about the best shot I can get of a mobo with it. It's to the left of the ATX power connector.
