Just a really quick question the Molex connection can the 2 Molex be on the same cord or do they all need to be on separate cords for each Molex?

Sorry for the n00b question i cant remember... dont flame me to much

Thanks

I would imagine even if a Cable has many molex's in it, they should all give the same amount of power...? Or else why would they even put so many on one cable...

Don't know, don't quote me on this

Bummp anyone else?

The same cord coming from the PSU? Yeah, absolutely fine.

Each molex gives 50 watts, 6 pin Pciexpress gives 75watts, thats why you need 2 molex.

Thanks sorry i just couldnt remember

Just one more thing real quick 2 of these 6 pin Molex things going to 2 separate cards on the one Molex cord With 4 Molex is that ok?

Yes no problem, I prefer to have an psu with the pcie cables instead of molex adaptors.

You're safer splitting it over as many cables as you can. I'd use 2 molex chains if I could.

Make sure your PSU doesn't have the molex and SATA power connections on a different rail that won't have enough amperage to support the card.

Im just trying to check that now

On most PSUs the Molex cables all come from the same rail so using one Molex off one cable and another off a different cable won't make a difference.

This is the product page for it im pretty sure
