Need advice about PCIe cable splitter

CyberpowerPC07 · Apr 9, 2014

Is using a PCIe cable splitter for a GPU safe? So, my PSU only has two PCIE cables which I am currently using on my one GPU. Would it be safe to attach a Y splitter cable to my one PCIe cable and then use those two plugs to power a single card?

How many connectors does your graphics card have?
I may be wrong, but I don't think that cable will be able to put out enough power for an average discrete card.

Two. It's a Radeon HD 6870 and my PSU 700 watt. Not sure of the brand at the moment.
