Okay so the problem is that my Antech Earthwatts 500w has only 2x 6 pin PCIE 12V connectors and 6950 DirectCU 2 need 6 pin AND 8 pin and bright people from ASUS did only give a 2 x molex to 6 pin converter with the card so I cannot plug in my new graphics card. And yes the 500w antec should be enough I have checked.
So I have one 4 pin 12vATX connector like this:
,and I'm thinking about splitting it to two 2 pin 12vATX so I can fill the two holes that are left empty after connecting both 6 pin connectors to the graphics card.
I couldn't find a answer anywhere that is this safe to do? Thanks!
