i want to review this question later (optional)

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the requirement

The motherboard uses a 24 - pin ATX connector. We need to find a power - supply that is compatible.

Step2: Evaluate each option

• Option A: A power - supply with a 20 - pin ATX and a 4 - pin connector can be used as the 20 - pin + 4 - pin can be combined to form a 24 - pin connection to power the motherboard.
• Option B: A power - supply with a 20 - pin ATX and a Molex connector cannot fully power the motherboard as it lacks the necessary pins in the right configuration.
• Option C: A power - supply with a 20 - pin ATX and a floppy - disk drive connector cannot fully power the motherboard as it lacks the necessary pins in the right configuration.
• Option D: A power - supply with 20 - pin ATX and a 6 - pin connector is not suitable as the 6 - pin is not for the main motherboard power connection.
• Option E: A power - supply with a 24 - pin ATX connector only is a valid option as it directly matches the motherboard's requirement.

Answer:

A. A power supply with a 20 - pin ATX and a 4 - pin connector
E. A power supply with a 24 - pin ATX connector only
