I have the same problem. This started happening when I upgraded my CL software. Where can we find older versions of the software???

Great... I have placed my order... Btw you need to get more reviews of this product out there... There are hardly any...

Dear Greybeard thank you for your reply. The PCIe cables that come with the HX1200i are daisy chained (pig tailed), meaning the 8 pin and 6 pin are on the same cable. Since I have 3x R9 290's I have to use a single cable (with 8 pin and 6 pin on one cable) for each of them (so 3 cables)... However can the 8 pin and 6 pin on one cable deliver 225W of power (+75W from the slot itself) to the card... So I am wondering that the daisy chained cable can actually provide 225W of power.... Can it?

So you think I would need two separate cables (not daisy chained) for one R9 290? But then it defeats the whole purpose of buying a Corsair PSU as I would only be able to connect TWO R9 290's because the HX1200i only has 4 PCIe (2 connections per cable) cables... It does not make sense? The only Corsair PSU that can work in this case is an AX1200i (for 3x R9 290's)... Jonnyguru where are you?

I was going to buy an AX1200i but it seems overkill and since the HX1200i provides the same power I decided to go with this one instead however I have a question and I need some one that knows this to give me a sound answer. Here goes... Can a single daisy chained (2x 6+2 pin connectors) PCIe cable, on the HX1200i provide 275-300w (23-25amps) of power to a single R9 290? I have 3 of these cards in crossfire on a 1000w PSU on SEPERATE PCIe cables not daisy chained and they work fine. However I want a higher wattage just in case I add more components later etc... Can one single daisy chained PCIe cable handle this kind of power for one card? I could not get an answer to this question in another topic so I wrote a new one... PLease I need an answer!!!! Thanks for the answers if any...
