Hi,

I posted a thread but when I tried to reply to it, I kept getting the 404 error.

So I have a brand new graphics card which included two 2 molex to PCIe connectors.

What is the point of these cables? From what I saw on youtube (on how to install GPUs) nobody used these?

Thanks

THey're for in case your PSU doesn't have the ccorrecct cables to power the GPU.

However, it's usually not recommended that you use them because insufficient cabling is a pretty good sign the PSU isn't up to the job.
