What PSU should I get? CX750M?

That is what I think happened unless the OP wants to take some pictures of what he is describing juuuuuuuuuust to make sure.

That said, I would reach out to CM to have them send the right ones. In the mean time, the adapters will work fine.

agreeing with the use of some 8 to 6 or 8 to 6+2 adapter

People, can we drop the issue with what adapters he's suppose to have and concentrate on what he says he has.

 

[de.das.dude]

just one thing... is ur current one a modular? and if so are you sure you didnt put the wrong ones in the psu?

 

[Jirachi]

So, they gave me the wrong cables. Im pretty much stuck now. I only have 2x 6+2 PINs and 2x 8PINs. I need 4x 6 pins. I have 2x (2 molex to 6 pin). Can i use them without performance loss or instability?

Yes, modular and yes, im sure i didnt put the wrong ones.

 

[EarthDog]

It was already mentioned a couple of times it is ok to use those adapters. I would still contact CM and have them ship the right ones.

As a side note, if you were short on power or had dirty power, things do not slow down, they just stop working at a certain point. A PSU has nothing to do with the performance of a GPU. On or OFF.

Enjoy your build!

Cooler Master V700 - Seasonic Oem . I don't want chinese Crapxon capacitors in my power supply.

Thanks! Can i aslo just seperate the righter pins of the 8pins? So, id get a 6+2 PIN?

That would most likely void the warranty.

Your PSU should have come with a list of included items. Check that against what you have, and if it is wrong, contact CM and get them to send out the correct cables.

Edit: I found a reviewer on Newegg who said that the wires were different than what the website states.

 

[Jirachi]

Yea, well, i dont care at all if the warranty voids. If this will just work without any problems, im good!

I appreciate your research about the wires, theblue.

 

[thebluebumblebee]

Because it is easy for me to get the 8 pin PCI-e connector confused with the 8 pin EPS connector, I will link you to this which has them right next to each other. Notice where the yellow wires are at.

The point of a warranty is to sort out those problems. That thing has a 5 year warranty, and imagine it breaking down in say a couple of months. It could happen.

 

[Jirachi]

Well. The wires are all black in my case,

 

[Jirachi]

Alright, I completed the SLi setup by seperating the 8 PINS in 6+2. It seems to work! Played COD BO II Zombies for a testrun, and I have like 160-180 percent of the FPS than I had before!

Anyways, would I be safe benchmarking with 3DMark Demo? I'm not sure my 620W PSU will handle it! To make clear: I have the Cooler Master Silent Pro M2 620W.

You are right about that one, though my PSU is modular, and those cables I ''modified'' are modular too. So, in the case it would bread down, I can just buy a pair of these cables and return it.

I concur with earthdog (post #4 in this thread). You might want to look at my specs. 560 Ti's pull more watts than 660 Ti's!

 

[Jirachi]

Alright, so I can bench them without occuring problems ?

You can ask the question in different ways, but the answer will remain the same.
