Hello guys, I currently have a zotac gtx 770 and a cx600m psu. The zotac gtx770 needs an 8 pin and 6 pin to run. My psu only has one pci slot to use. Only the 8 pin is connected from my psu to my gpu. I am still missing a 6 pin connector because there are not enough slots.

This is a modular device , you should find the needed cables supplied with your PSU ( in its box ) .

I have the cables, but the psu only has one slot and it's either the 8 pin or 6 pin. I need both.

I guess that's why some people don't recommend the CX series of PSU, aside from it sub-par build quality.

If you can't plug in the second cable you might have to use a molex-to-6/8 pin connector. If not, you're out of luck.

The CX600M has the needed connections.

PCI-Express Connector
2 x 6+2-Pin

I am sure it has the needed cables , on the off chance that it doesn't ( most probably they're lost somewhere ) your card with come with a molex to 6 pin connector . So you can use that to connect your PSU to your GPU :)

I can only use one of the 2x 6+1 pin because there is only 1 pci slot on the psu.

It comes with two cables, but:



The PCIe cable plugs into the 8-pin slot on the PSU side... and this pic only shows one connection point. Meaning the other PCIe cable is useless.

Thanks guys, I forgot about the molex connectors.

Both 6+2 pin connectors are on the same cable, which is why the psu only has 1 port for the cable. Atleast that is the way it was on the cx500m and cx600m I used(both if which have long since failed btw).

That's not the solution....

That PSU has the cables.
