Unfortunately you are right. I didnt want to spend more money but i dont want to have problems either. I just ordered and RMx rm750x. Thanks

Yes

The PSU is 620 watts, the GPU wattage requirements are 230 watts so in theory it draws 115 Watts from 2 seperate cables. is that an abnormal amount for the socket?

Hi all. I have an old PSU, the Enermax Liberty 620w. I had no problems until now and it performs as it should. Recently i bought a new GPU card, the AMD R9 390. The problem is that the card requires 2 x 8 pin connectors and my PSU only has 2 x 6 pin and 6 x 5 pin (check attached picture 1). There is a cable that uses one 6pin and 1 5pin to convert it into 8 pin (check picture 2) but there is no second for the other GPU socket. I used an adapter that uses 2 molex cables to give an 8pin and i used 2 seperate cables for each molex (see picture 3). So my card now uses 4 sockets (1 red and 3 black) Everything seems to work well and the games are running perfectly. My question is: Is this ok or it is potentially unsafe? Thanks
