Do I need another PCI-E Cable?

[RevoltTrain]

So I am picking up another Asus 7770 2GB card to CF with my current Asus 7770 2GB card, so I was wondering, since it only takes one 6-pin PCI-E Cable can I use a dual 6 Pin PCI-E cable for both GPUs or should I run another PCI-E cable?

You should run another.

You can use a dual cable or run two, they'll both work.

For neatness, i'd say run another one.

This is very, true, but i have OCD so i reckon that 2 would be easier to cable manage etc. @RevoltTrain , depends weather you care about messy cables or not, but your case doesn't have a window, so you probably don't mind if it's messy.

You should run another. 

Any particular reason?

Potential power draw. I suppose it's only relevant in higher end cards, but I'd still recommend running another.

You should sell you 7770 and buy a better single gpu. 7770 cf is a terrible idea.

Running 2 seems unlikely needed given that it is a 7770

I only have $100 for a new GPU, and I can't be without a GPU to sell my current one, my CPU doesn't have an iGPU

It will work well enough, if you can get it cheap enough, but yes a sale and a single card will be more worthwhile/enjoyable.

Depends on whether you can go without the use of your computer. If you can't then there you go. If the game supports crossfire well then the 7770 will be an acceptable experience.

Well save up. CF'ing low end cards is pointless imo.

Please, just do this. Just to be sure, it's otherwise possible you fry the cable. Probably small chance, but still...

Do you know where I can buy another PCI-E cable for a CX750M?

It works well if the games support crossfire well, otherwise yes you are correct.

A single card solution for a worth upgrade would be r9 270 and up.

Umm did you lost one? The psu comes with 2 pci-e wires...

Mine didn't, I contacted Corsair, but Corsair has horrible customer support

Well then it's probably easiest to go ghetto and use a 2x4-pin to 6-pin adapter. That should work fine. Normally it's shipped with the new gpu
