Vszerda ATX 4 Pin P4 to EPS 8 Pin Power Adapter Cable 6 inch 18AWG

SKU CH-9SWK-6ZZAC

Converts a 4-pin ATX CPU power connector to an 8-pin EPS motherboard socket using 18AWG copper conductors in a six-inch length

  • Converts a 4-pin PSU plug to an 8-pin motherboard CPU socket
  • 18AWG copper conductors deliver stable 12V power to the CPU
  • Compact 6-inch length keeps cable routing tidy inside the case
  • Female P4 to male EPS connectors ensure a secure, keyed fit
  • For motherboard CPU power only — not for graphics cards

What this adapter does

The Vszerda ATX 4 Pin P4 to EPS 8 Pin Power Adapter Cable converts a power supply's 12V 4-pin female connector into an 8-pin male EPS connector for a motherboard CPU socket. It is built with 18AWG copper conductors and measures 6 inches in length. The black and yellow cable is intended for internal desktop builds where the PSU lacks a native 8-pin CPU power lead.

Power delivery limits

This adapter only rearranges the existing 12V lines from the 4-pin source; it does not increase the current the PSU can supply. The 18AWG wires are rated for the standard ATX 12V specification, but the total power remains capped by the original 4-pin connector and the power supply's own 12V rail capacity. It cannot be used to feed an 8-pin graphics card connector, as doing so would exceed the adapter's design limits and risk damage.

Installation notes

The 6-inch length keeps cable routing short inside compact cases, but it also restricts placement flexibility between the PSU and the motherboard CPU socket. Ensure the PSU's 4-pin female P4 connector is fully seated before attaching the 8-pin male end to the board. A loose fit on either side can cause intermittent power delivery or prevent the system from posting.

Questions about this item

Which connector variant matches my PSU and motherboard?

This cable converts a 12 V ATX 4-pin P4 female from the PSU into a 12 V 8-pin EPS male for the motherboard.

What does the 18 AWG rating mean for my build?

18 AWG copper conductors carry the CPU 12 V current safely over the short 6 inch run.

Will the 4-pin to 8-pin adapter limit power delivery on the EPS socket?

The adapter passes the same 12 V rail through; the motherboard still receives up to the PSU's 4-pin rated current.
