Rctrucker Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I recently upgraded my computer to an Asrock extreme9 with a 3930k. The asrock extreme9 utilizes 2 8pin CPU power connectors. From what I have read(still unable to confirm someone has done this), it will run with just one of them hooked up, but I will not be able to overclock. All of my specs are in my profile, but I wanted to know, is there a modular adapter available for the second 8pin CPU power connector? If not, could you direct me to an approved solution for a molex adapter? Lastly, I noticed you release an all white individually wrapped solution for replacing all the modular connectors and that it includes an 8pin 12v CPU connector in that bundle, is that sold stand alone? I have already purchased sleeved connectors for all of the power cords that will show in my 600t, and just need the one extra 8pin. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wlw_wl Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 You can use an PCI-E 8pin to CPU 8-pin adapter, as these are keyed differently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rctrucker Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 Any that you could suggest? After some time on google, I wasn't able to find very many. I would need something as short as possible, and preferably wrapped, but I could do that myself. EDIT: I did find one... http://www.sidewindercomputers.com/6pcmato4epsf.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Usually a 2nd 8 pin atx connector is for extreme overclocking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rctrucker Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 I'm switching to a custom loop as soon as I can afford it, double 360 rad and a double 240 (i'll be cutting apart this pretty 600t case). I am trying to plan ahead before I get there and need it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wlw_wl Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Akasa makes one, http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=28080 and there are Y-connectors as well, but I don't actually see any sense in it from electrical point of view http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=25694 And holy cow how are you gonna fit all those radiators in a 600T? I guess 3x120mm RAD will fit on the top if you cut a hole extending the existing mesh towards the front of the case, but another 2x120mm? Vertically behind 5,25" and HDD slots?

Rctrucker Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 I have an h100 push pull mounted at the top right now, with the top mesh cover on. The other 240 will go where the hdd trays are. I also have the top 200mm there now, close to the video cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
