Topic: how to connect 2x6 pin graphics card to psu (Read 951 times)
Mining rig question:
I am wondering how I should connect my Sapphire Radeon 7950 cards to the PSU. There are 2x6 pin connections on the top of each card.
If I use only one 6 pin connection at the PSU end that splits into 2x6 pin connectors at the card end, am I correct in thinking that this will only
provide each card with 75 Watts, rather than the 150 that it wants to get through the 2x6 pin connectors. That would put a tremendous load
on the motherboard (through the 24 pin connector).
So, do I need to use separate 6 pin connectors/cables for each of the 6 pins of the card?
Sorry for being so ignorant!
