Quick question.
I bought a picoPSU-160-XT
http://www.mini-box.com/picoPSU-160-XT
I am putting this in a Silverstone ml03b. The DC in cable on the Pico was too short to reach the back of the case, so I went out and bought an ATX12V 4 Pin P4 CPU Power Extension Cable.

The Pico looks to actually only use two of the four cords within the cable, but the non used cords are looped. The extension I bought utilizes all four cords within the cable. I just want to make sure it is ok to use this extension cable, or I do I need to purchase a special one from mini box to extend the DC in. I am thinking that theoretically the loops null the power on the extra cords, but just want to ask before I fry my build or burn my house down.
Make sense?
