Will my psu have enough cables

tommyboy44 · May 28, 2014

I am getting dual msi gtx 760 4gb and a corsair cx750 psu and i am wondering if i will have enough cables and openings on the psu for those cards, i think they both each take an 8pin and a 6pin

Based on this: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/gBhfhM , they should be compatible. It looks like the card itself comes with a 6 and 8 pin power adapter. Your PSU has more than enough power for these two cards, and has the correct cables.

Yes it would have enough cables for dual 760s but I would recommend you get a different PSU. The corsair CX series uses cheap chinese capacitors and I have seen a lot of posts on the forum with people that had problems with them. Try to get this one:

Power Supply: Antec HCG M 750W 80+ Bronze Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply ($75.00 @ NCIX US)

Your cx750 psu comes with 2 6 pin connectors according to newegg

I doubt that is true. The corsair web site shows 4 pcie connectors, and I assume they are only 6 pin connectors.

On top of that, the CX line is tier 3 on this quality list:

I think I would look for a different psu like Seasonic or XFX. It will cost you about $15 more.

Or... why not build with a single GTX780 or such. You will need less power, and will avoid dual gpu issues such as stuttering and screen tearing.
