ZeroKateo Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 The AX750 and AX850 both come with a 12 to 8 pin CPU power connector which is really weird considering it means the motherboard connector can NOT be plugged in with this. What is the point of this if there aren't even any pins in the last 4 holes? http://filesmelt.com/dl/20130103_191240.jpg http://filesmelt.com/dl/20130103_191247.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SecrtAgentMAn Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Just about to make a thread on this question, any reason why this cable is included with the PSU? It doesn't say PCI-E on the other end like the 2 PCI-E cables. I also have another cable that has just 8 connectors on either side, which would most likely be the CPU power cable.

They can both be used as CPU connectors but it means you can't plug in the motherboard power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did a little researching, I think it's for motherboards that can take an additional 8-pin for more overclocking stability, it would plug into one of the PCI-E connectors on the PSU side. Someone correct me if I'm wrong on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
