  <<<< Note that an ATX  PSU with 24 pin can be plugged into a motherboard which has a 20pin socket. The 4 unused pins (black, red, yellow and orange wires) are simply left hanging. There is only one way the connector can be plugged in, so there is no risk of error.

This may not be possible if some motherboard components are too closed to the socket and prevent the 24pin connector to be pushed all the way daown. In this case ask for a 24 to 20 pin adaptor or cut the unused 4pin.
