How Many Watts Can A 6 Pin Gpu Cable Draw

• #2

I wouldn't. Fifty-fifty though the last ii pins are only grounds, the power supply isn't set to provide that much power to it (I believe it is about 100w divergence between 6 and viii). I'd definitely play it safe and upgrade the ability supply.

at that place are these

and these

i have an XFX hd 5770 and it has 1x half dozen pin

• #7

Apply ane of these, y'all will be fine. They can exist bought for as little as 99p Uk

• #xi

How did y'all solve the 8-pin problem?

• #18

As long equally the PSU holds up, I call back it should be fine. 5830 shouldn't need an eight-pin at all unless it was only an 8-pin (no additional 6-pin).

• #xix

would be fine if that psu was up to snuff just would't trust it

• #20

I had the aforementioned outcome at work with my 7970. PSU was a 700W server PSU with only two 6pin PCI slots and the card had 1 six pivot and a 8 pivot so I ran two jumpers from two separate unused molex connectors and it works like a champ but I trust the PSU

• #21

I wouldn't run a 5380 off a 500w, specially from a weird brand.
ive had lots of trouble with cheap branded PSUs in the by

• #25

Well, it worked fine for a few days, then suddenly it started rebooting by itself, with the BIOS proverb that the system was close downward to protect itself from voltage spikes from the ability supply. Meh. Swapped the PSU to a 430 W Antec Neo-HE and the GPU to a Radeon HD 4850. Hopefully it works now.

The CPU is a Pentium G3258 (not overclocked), and so I remember 430W should suffice. Especially since information technology's a known practiced make this fourth dimension.
