bigfellla Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 I have a few questions to Mr Ram guy. Is the 8 pin connector necessary as aposed to the 6 pin connector? What benefits do you get from having a 8 pin connector? Is there any difference between a adaptor (6 - 8 pin) or a straight 8 pin connection (ie is there a loss in power delivered when using an adaptor)? Can a native 8 pin PCIe connector delivery more power to the card than a native 6 pin connector? thank you very much. btw i am a big fan of corsair, i have their ram and tx750W. I am asking this for a friend with a HD3870x2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EliteKiller Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Only necessary for cards that require it. Even then some will run fine with a 6-pin in the 8-pin slot (2900XT comes to mind) It's able to deliver more power: 6-pin is capable of delivering up to 75W 8-pin (the addt'l 2 pins are ground) is capable of delivering up to 150W The PCIe slot is capable of delivering up to 75W Other than a little added resistance there should not be an issue. see #2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sneakers_Matri Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 Hi there Ram guy. I sent an email to ramguy@corsairmemory.com 2008/04/10 and was woundering if I should expect my new 8 pin connectors anytime soon since I'm about to step up to a GX2 GFX card in a few weeks time. Not sure I wanna post my email adress here but, I guess I could PM you it if needed to search your "inboxes" at the office to confirm you actually recieved my email :D: Hope to hear from you soon~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

p0l1cy Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 Hi, I have the opposite problem as most people in this thread. I recently got a HX520, and it came with two 6+2 pin PCI-E power cables. My video card is an EVGA 9800 GTX. Of course the point of the 6+2 pin cable is that you can leave off the two extra pins if you don't need them, but I have the issue where the hole for the clip on the cable in my video card's plug is too small and centered, where the clip on the 6+2 pin cable is too large and off-centered. This means it doesn't fit in the plug at all. I read the post that was linked previously about taking the clip off, but I really don't want to do anything destructive in case I make a mistake, and I'd like to keep the clip on in case I later get a video card that needs an 8 pin cable. Is it possible for me to get Corsair to send me some regular 6 pin PCI-E power cables? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted April 21, 2008 Corsair Employees Share Posted April 21, 2008 The standard 6-pin cables may no longer be available, as we have been bundling our PSUs with the 6+2 pin cables for over 8 months now. You should be able to contact your video card manufacturer (EVGA) for adapters so that you do not have to break the pins off of the connectors on the PSU.

man_in_africa Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 I am a newbie. I want to get HX1000 PSU for 2 x GTX g/cards which have 2 x 6-pin connectors close to each other on each card. To use the PSU 8-pin cable, are the extra 2 pins removable. I think yes, but just need confirmation before parting with my $. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
