Hi!
So I am buying a new GPU soon which is a GTX 760 windforce. And I have some doubts with this move.
I will first list my whole rig here so it would be known what my power draw is:
* CPU: i5 Haswell 4570 - 3.2 GHz
* MOBO: Asus B85-plus
* GPU: Currently a HD 5770 and soon hopefully a GTX 760
* 2 regular fans and 2 LED fans
* 1 HDD, 7200 RPM.
* Maybe a DVD rom in feature and a Fan controller
All of this is supported by a Enermax triathlon 550 W modular PSU. Link
Now first of all I would like to be again 100% sure that this PSU will be actually able to support my rig even at full power. (I will not be doing any kind of OC)
Here is a picture of some specs about the PSU (I am not that good at reading out if it's got enought A for the new GPU :/)

And now secondly... If the PSU indeed is able to support all of what I have in this rig.. I have some questions about connecting it.
I have two rails or connections or however you call them on PSU that support the 12V GPU products. And for them I have two cables.

Now as you can see, the first cable nr 1 has only one connector and the second one nr 2 has two of them in one. So if I connect the second one to one rail, I could connect like 2 HD 5770's to it.
But I am wondering that If I get that GTX card now, how am I supposed to connect it`? It requires one 8 pin connector and 1 6 pin connector.
So can I just take the one cable (figure 2 on the second picture) and connect it to the card. Or do I have to take both of thoes cables and connect the single on to the GPU and then only one of the connectors from the other one?
Thanks in advance,
Veske
