This connector comes off an old STFM psu. The connector obviously plugged into the motherboard.
Here is a picture of the connector and one of the wires pulled out to allow the pin to be visible.
I am trying to get some of these pins. Does anyone know what the pin type is or a supplier for them?
Alternatively, if anyone has the specs on the connector itself I may able to backtrace to the pins that way.
Thanks.

Re: Help identifying STFM psu pin type
Has the little tab on the back of the metal part broken off? If not then you can gently bend it out and that will allow it to lock in the plastic block again. It looks like its there.
Otherwise I think possibly Molex, but not sure of the type. Exxos sells replacements in his store BTW.

No, it's fine, I need to buy some pins to rewire the connector as I am repurposing it for my ST with picoPSU.

Czietz over at the other forum pointed me in the right direction. So I have some ordered now.

I myself have been curious about this... Perhaps you could share what you did so that others may know?
