I got the Raidmax RX-730SS and i was just wondering if it is designed to output 2x 6+2 in one cable, since it only got one of them. I had a graphics card earlier (XFX radeon 2770), and ran it with this PSU, and for some reason my graphics card stopped working after a while, just wondering if it was this, or if it might have just been a bad graphics card. I got the money back from the retailer, so.... It also strictly says that one is only to use the red connector with the other red connector.

Thanks in advance. :D

Yes, that is normally fine. It is dependent on the wire size. But Raidmax makes some of the poorest PSUs on the market. It may be the reason your gfx card quit working. Raidmax is in the "not recommended" tier. https://community.newegg.com/eggxpert/computer_hardware...

Video made with Raidmax supplies , they are very poor unstable power supplies.


I love that video. Better when you watch it in a dark room.
