Is the "new" 24 pin PS the same thing as what use to be the Xeon PS?
I ask because I am using two Xeon PS, on a PCP&C on a Xeon, and
another Antec 550 Xeon PS on a standard ATX using an adaptor. So are
my Xeon PS now the standard 24 pin PS?

Yep, that's when your average PSU came with it. They are actually, of
course, just the old SSI EPS12v standard plugs, with a 2x12 (24) pin main
connector and a 2x4 (8) pin +12v connector.
The SSI connectors were originally found only in high-end multiprocessor
boards that typically had an Extended ATX form factor. That's where the EATX
PWR comes from...

Yep. All newer psus are 24 pin. That became the standard when PCI-E became
standard. :)

Reading through the manual it says it needs a 24 pin "EATXPWR", didn't
know there was such a thing. His current power supply is 20 pin... guess
that answers my question.
