I have 2 gtx 780 slis but currently only enough cables for one of the cards. I have been searching for the same cables to hook up the other card and searching internet forums for the right cables for a couple days with no luck. My psu is an ocz zt 750W.http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168... If someone could link me where to buy the cables I need that would be amazing!

I wouldn't do 2x780 on 750W, too tight in my opinion.

Buy 2 of them. They are 6+2 so they can be 6 pin or 8 pin. Will work great for your cards.


I think you will be ok with the power. It is close. Just dont add too much more stuff :)

250W per card, + system power + spikes... it's asking for trouble, but like I said that's my opinion. Now 2x970/980 is a different story :)
