Weird additional GPU power connector on a motherboard, thoughts?
Go to solution
Solved by 0ld_Chicken,
But can it hurt if I plug it in for a single R9 290X setup? I mean it draws a lot of power for a single GPU and if it can't hurt then I might just as well plug it in considering my Corsair TX650 V2 PSU is non-modular and got lots of free Molex plugs lying around... Or can it cause ANY kind of harm? Cause if there's even the slightest risk then I'll leave it alone ;-;
I wouldn't think it could hurt it but I suppose there is always a chance. The graphics card should only be pulling 75w from the pci iirc and the rest will come from the additional power connectors (8/6pin). Go for it though if you've got the connections
