lazarus January 21, 2010 Share lazarus Member January 21, 2010 So I got the new rig. Everything is set up hardware-wise, but I'm having a little trouble with my wiring. I think I can figure out the small stuff, but it's the big stuff I'm having a little trouble with. Soooo... From my power supply, there is a wire that is marked for PCI-Express and it's 8 pins (6 plus 2 detachable) does this go to the motherboard (8pins) or to my graphics card, which has 6 pins?

bushwack January 21, 2010 Share bushwack Member January 21, 2010 It's for your PCI-Express video card. Some cards use 6 pin and some use 8 pin connectors. Some even use both if its a big honker of a video card. If your video card is 6 pin then break the extra 2 off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
