You will see a difference. Supernight is about $30 on Amazon.

to the motherboard the wire can handle a lot of power ( 15 amps or so )
and a socket end from hardware store (they are polarized) so you can't plug them in
backwards on the power supply 
I made these to mount my power supply on the back of my machine

You could change the size if your power supply measures different
I later printed risers and mounted two power supplies to the bottom of case

I could resolder it on but the thing is super flimsy and i want a more secure connectoion. What is the best 12v jack that can be easily soldererd on?

also are there any mods out there for attaching the upgraded power supply directly to the case?
