6 pin male to 6 pin male splitter

Bliznipa

I've been struggling with connecting my GPU with my bit fenix sexy colored cables, but I only have 1 6pin pci slot left on my PSU. I've been looking everywhere. Can anyone help me find a 6 pin male to 2 x 6pin males splitter?? I can't find one anywhere. Thanks!

You shouldn't use adapters for power in your computer. If it's not there it usually means it's not meant for what your doing.

What PSU and GPU are you using, if your need adapters usually they are fairly dodgy PSU's.

I have a 600w supply for only about 350w needed. Must single or multi rail psus can handle it. It's for the GPU to be used off of one slot

Corsair cx600m and r 9 380x by power color (needs 2x6 pin power and doesn't come with power cable is the issue). My case fan control takes up one of the power slots, the sata power takes up another so I only have one 6 pin slot available on my psu

That unit should be enough for that without issues however ideally it is best practice to not use many adapters. Something like this would work for what you are needing:

And that would be great but I actually already have that. I would need that same one but the single end would need to be male also and not female, I need 3 male ends so 1 for psu connection, and 2 others for the female end of my 2 gpu cables

That GPU only has two connectors so it would only require a splitter, and being dual 6 pins it would acutally require this as that as one solid 8 pin and on 6+2pin:

If you want a full replacement cable you will need to get it custom made, I believe CableMod makes them and the basic kits may work.

I admit I guess I don't really understand what you mean

Ok I'll definitely check out cable mods, thanks

Ok so I figured out I basically need a 3-way female rather than male
