So i have 2x 7870 which use 2x6pins each

My psu only has 2 6pins, its a 700w silver

can i use 1 molex, and 1 6pin per card? Would it be alright or to stressing for the psu?

Solution
The CFI you have is a less than desirable brand and won't ever reach its 700w rating. Generally speaking you should be fine, however a better PSU would be nice to have. I believe that is a single rail setup (can't confirm) so there isn't any reason not to try it...

Its defiantly 80+, i cant get on the site at the moment, seems like they are having site issues
 


Yes that PSU is good. But that CFI PSU definitely has a fake 80+ Silver label
