Im setting up a server with a non-modular power supply. It has a 6+2 GPU cable which I'd like to use to power sata Google search hasn't provided much, anyone have any idea what this adaptor might be called? I have 3 options 6pin to 5pin (5x1) or 6pin (2x3) or sata 15pin So the adptor needs to be female 6pin to female 5pin / 6 pin / 15 pin sata

So basically what the computer does when i try to start it with the pcie connector plugged in is that the power light turns on but nothing happens, no fans spinning anywhere, hard drive not starting. Only power led comes on. When the 6 pin pcie connector isnt plugged in the computer starts as normal and demands me to connect the pcie connector. I'm suspecting a short, but how would i fix this and at what point might the short be happening? I have tried the gpu in question with multiple psu:s and motherboards. system specs (if it matters): ASUS GTX 660 2GB (the smallest one) fujitsu lga775 motherboard q9400 stock clocks and voltages 500gb hdd 8 gigs of samsung ddr3 1333mhz 300 watt liteon psu also tested with: asrock p67 extreme6 board and an xfx550 watt psu acer h61 board and 650 watt psu asus z170 pro gaming and corsair rmx750w psu (same results with everything) -
Hello guys, I have a following fan -> DC Brushless PFM1412DE-SP02 (couldn't find any spec sheets online) which I'd like to use / control using PWM signal. The problem is that the fan has 6 wires and I'm not really sure how to control it. 2 are red, 2 black, 1 blue and 1 yellow. I know that the blue one is for PWM signal, yellow reports the RPM, just not sure about the double red and blacks, if maybe one set of them is supposed to be used differently .. So far I've been using it with this PWN "controller" but the problem is that I cannot get my fan to run at low RPM's. I connected two reds together, as well as two black wires (to have 2, instead of 4) to this PWM motor controller and can only get it to run at what I'd say is 60% of the RPM. If I lower the duty cycle on the knob, at some point it just stops, the RPM's don't go down enough. I assume this is due to the frequency -> no fan spec sheet = guessing the frequency. I ordered this PWM signal generator the other day (it didn't arrive yet) to try and figure out PWM frequency for my fan. My concern is.. the wiring. Should it be connected like this? I'd appreciate your suggestions & tips! Thanks

Would a 6+2 pin connector fit in a 6 pin gpu also what pin connector is the biostar rx 560

Hi everyone, after a long time of running a gt710 I finally have the opportunity to upgrade to a GTX760. However, I have noticed that my PSU has only 2 extra molex connectors, and the GPU has one 6-pin and one 8-pin connectors. Would it be possible to run just the 6-pin, and leave the 8-pin unpopulated? Alternatively, could I run a 6-pin and an 8pin adapter off just 2 molex? I should note that I don't have the GPU yet, I've got an opportunity to buy it though. -
Ok so I am getting an RTX 3060 and I was looking at this: https://www.amazon.com.au/Gigabyte-GeForce-3060-Gaming-GV-N3060GAMING-OC-12GD-2-0/dp/B0971BG25M/ref=sr_1_5?crid=1PE1VRBK95OLL&keywords=3060&qid=1664849930&qu=eyJxc2MiOiI0LjYwIiwicXNhIjoiMy44NiIsInFzcCI6IjMuMTQifQ%3D%3D&s=electronics&sprefix=30%2Celectronics%2C311&sr=1-5 But it has come to my attention that the RTX 3060 is rated for 170w and can spike up to 200w, However Gigabyte and all the other GPU brands decided to make it a single 8Pin PCIe connector from the PSU despite it being rated for only 150w, How does this make sense? I read that the motherboard PCIe slot can provide up to 75w but is it fine to use that or should I get a premium (Strix or AORUS) and pay $100-$150 more to get an extra 6Pin connector, or is 8Pin enough? I would probably get this if I needed to get the 8+6 Pin power https://www.scorptec.com.au/product/graphics-cards/nvidia/90375-gv-n3060aorus-e-12gd-r2.0/exdemo do you all think this would work? One other thing that doesnt matter as much but is still relevent I beleive is that I am also getting Lian Li 2*8pin strimmer cables so it would look better with the 8+6 connecter rather than just 8 -
I have hp 800 g1 and i want to upgrade graphics card to gtx 1050 ti and it's need 6 pin connector and i don't have it So is it safe to use an adapter from sata to 6pin? My ps is 320 watt

Hey guys! I just bought an 5700xt rog strix oc, but I didnt check what the PCI pin connector requirements were. I looked at a few and I think they had 1 x 8 pin and 1 x 6 pin connectors. Anyway this one has 2 x 8 pin connectors but my old psu only has 1, and 1 6 pin. Im thinking about buying an adapter for 6 to 8 pin tomorrow but im not sure if my psu Will be up to the task, and if the card Will run if i do. My specs are: ryzen 3600x rog strix b450 gaming f 16gb Ddr4 3200mhz ram 2xssd 1x7200rpm hdd Xfx pro 550w psu (85 rated i think) upgraded from 1060 6gb MSI gaming x to 5700 xt rog strix (not tested yet, due to no adapter) sorry if this is a bad post or posted on wrong Page (im new here)

So I have a server motherboard and i need two 8 pin cpu connectors. I know that a cpu 8 pin is 4 ground 4 live. my 6 pin pcie is 3 ground 3 live, and i have 2 of them. so i was wondering that if i have it with one 6 pin is in and another 6 pin with only 2 of it connectors plugged in will it work. The wiring would be correct though with 3 ground + 3 live + 2 Ground + 2 live.

I have Zotac gtx 260(i i know it's very old, just want to experiment. Also i have old 450w psu with only one 6pin connector, while gpu requires 2. Is it safe to connect one 6pin from psu and one with 2 molex to 6 pin?

Hi everyone. I want to know if the P600-ATX 800W PSU worth it for my budget gaming pc? Because I have been shocked of this PSU cause it has no 4 pin cpu connector that my mobo can support. Here is the pic of the available connectors and damn I am so pissed for my 45dollars here in the Philippines. And one person quoted me that the 4 pin is only meant for a 4 pin connector and not for a 6 pin.

Hey Yesterday i build my friends first computer! But he have bought a really cheap PSU and its look like its for a PC thats dont run GPU or a GPU that powered by PCE Express because the PSU dont have a 6-pin conenctor. So he got a molex to 6pin adaptor to power the GPU but now the pc dont post when the power its connected to the grafics card. The test that i have allready its testing the GPU on my pc ( that dont need adapters) and it works. The question its the problems its from the PSU, form the adapter or from the MotherBoard? I allready have see if the PSU have the right amount of watts and he had the PSU its a 500w and the rig needs 270w. Componets: intel core i3-7100 radeon rx 560 MSI H110M GAMING

Getting ready to start sleeving cable (my video card takes 6 pin power and I have spare cables If i upgrade) what Id like to know is it to ok to remove the extra 2 pin from the connector going to the psu

So I wanna buy a gtx 1060 that has a 6pin power connection but my psu is old and I have only 2 flat 4pin connectors available. The card ships with a 1 8pin to 2 6pin power connectors adapter (the evga 1060 6gb) Will it work? If not what might? For clarification these r the cable I have... There r those 2 other attachments at the endings - the black one used to be connected to the optical drive...

Hi! A few months ago I left the glorious pc masterrace by selling my computer, for various reasons. Now, after roughly 6 months i want to rejoin, by building my first ever gaming pc, which happens to be a budget build. In this case i bought an i3 2120 CPU 8 Gb ddr4 Crucial ram an MSI H110M pro vd mbo and got a great deal for a Gainward GTX 760, for around 70$. Keep in mind, I live in Hungary, and whatever i buy for example on ebay or amazon, i'll most likely have to pay double the price of the item just for the shipping.. I combined these items by searching on the internet, watching benchmarks and learning how these stuff work with each other, it was a great trip. BUT! Theres the PSU... If you look at the GPU, you see that it needs 2 x 6 pin connectors. Idk why, but i can't find any PSU-s with 6 pins in Hungary. I will add some pictures of brand new PSU-s which say they have 0 6 pin connectors. They have molex connectors which you can use with an additional molex to 6 pin, but idk if its the right thing to do.. Anyways, i hope you can help me finish my build, and have a great day!

This might sound insane, but I'm considering soldering a 6-pin power connector to the board of a GTX 970 where another 6-pin power connector will plug in. Hear me out; It 'appears' as though on one of the two auxiliary power rails on my GTX 970 is dodgy. If a 6-pin is plugged into it, the system won't boot and nothing is displayed on screen. If nothing is plugged into it, regardless of whether the other 6-pin connector is plugged in, the system won't boot, but I will receive a message advising to plug in all power connectors. So basically I'm wondering, if anyone has had any experience, would it be possible to supply the power of two 6-pin connectors to one of the 6-pin sockets on my GTX 970? Or would it completely destroy the card or my PSU (although my PSU should be okay; an EVGA 750W with a measly Ryzen 1500)? (I have also tried flashing different BIOSs' and have tried different PSUs and motherboards but the card reacts exactly the same no matter what). Cheers in advance

I just recieved an old 9800 GTX+, and on the Nvidia website, and a few other places, it says that it should have two six pin power connectors. This card only has a single six pin connector,and it does not appear to have ever had two. I am very confused and I have a bad headache. Someone please help.

So I finally upgraded my GTX 1050 to a GTX 1660 but sadly it requires an 8pin power connector and my psu only has a 6pin. I heard some people were able to get this card running with a 6pin power connector considering it only uses 120 watts of power. So will this work? I'm only playing games at 1366x768p resolution (less load on the GPU). Thanks in advance. Specs: Intel i5 9400 cpu Asus TUF B360M-Plus Gaming motherboard Kingston HyperX 16GB DDR4 2666 ram Asus TUF Gaming GTX 1660 gpu (hopefully this works) Western Digital Green SSD 580w 80+ power supply Acer V196HQL 1366x768p monitor

Hey all; Im not able to upgrade my PSU (Don't ask) I was wondering what is the most powerful GPU that has a 6 or 8 pin power connector? Thanks!

I decided to replace my GTX 960 Mini with a GTX 1070. The product page for my PC says I have a 600 W PSU but I can only see 1 6-pin connector that's connected to my current card. See image: I read that such adapter is not recommended. So do I need a new PSU? My specs: Intel Core i7-4790 (4 cores) up to 4Ghz 2Tb SATA3 7200rpm 16Gb DDR3 1600Mhz DVD-RW Super Multi ASUS GeForce GTX960 2Gb GDDR5 600W Silent PFC 12cm (I guess it's this one) -
so basically one of the 6 pin power plugs has fried so i was wondering how to replace it i have a gtx 970 and in the image the connecter i want to replace is on the left. if anyone could help me find a replacement part and tell me what i need to do. Thanks Ego

Hello folks! Hope yous all having a great day So I got that GTX 1050ti here, and it has a pcie 6pin connector on it (shocking I now, for a 75w TDP card). And so my question is, if I plan on running it at stock frequency, no OC whatsoever, could I possibly not plug this 6 pin? What would happen? I'd rather ask before blowing anything up! Thanks people

My Dad has been bugging me for a long time to get him different computer, his current DDR2 era one is terrible, the GPU is dying and just a few too many open Chrome browsers bring the tower to a crawl. Running anything besides Runescape at 720p/lowest settings is out of the question. So for his birthday this year I scored a great deal on a used HP Elitedesk 800 G2 TWR. It's got the standard 280w 80 Plus Platinum PSU, an i5 6500, 16GB of RAM, 120GB SSD for the OS, and a 1TB HDD. Runs great and looks pretty clean. It's just waiting for a graphics card. I've been reading all the forum posts about it and have watched far too many videos. As it stands the best that it will normally accommodate is the GTX 1650, however it's very tempting to order the best quality sata to 6pin adapter I can find and go with a 1650 Super. I know there's a lot of stigma and risk surrounding using adapters for GPUs (with due reason) and I know the sata is only rated at about 50w, but the card is only 100 TDP, just 25 more watts than it's older, slower brother. It seems that many people are trying to use the adapters for GPUs that have a much higher TDP (120-180w), and that trying to push it that far could certainly be a cause for concern. Is it asking too much for it to help run the Super? How much of the maximum 75W will the PCIE slot actually provide? It's hard to ignore the performance difference for only 10-20$ more, but is it worth the risk? In case it matters, my sata power cables from the PSU are 20AWG.

hey there i was bought an hp g1 800 with intel i5 4670 cpu and a hp 8200 with a i5 2500 cpu. fairly basic stuff as u expected. but there is a problem is i know the 6 ping pciE like plug into mother board and flat 6 ping that is for power good and ps on with 2 fan control and 2 com pins. i've maked the adaptor but i cant found a reliable way to trick mother board to not to give me fan error. i saw some people put a wire to green wire on cpu fan but its too messy and i dont like to do that. moddiy do that with a single wire but i'm scared to do that cause my 8200 died cause i accidentally short the sense fan to 12 volt and i sent it to get fixed i hope so. i will be appreciate that to help me out to short fan sense wire to which wire on standard psu just like moddiy modded cable do that. cause purchasing that is impossible for me as they not sent into my country and there is no similar products to buy them. thanks very much.
