P PSALSIDO Reputable Dec 8, 2014 2 0 4,510 Dec 8, 2014 #1 Will Cooler Master Extreme Power Plus 500W be able to power Asus GTX760 properly? I know that this GPU requires 8-pin to power and this PSU has only 6-pin but i guess i will get the adapter.

Solution clutchc Dec 8, 2014 Yeah, the CM Extreme is a tier 4 PSU. https://community.newegg.com/eggxpert/computer_hardware/f/135081/t/45344.aspx?Redirected=true Not the best and only 1 x 6pin. Some GTX 760 take an 8 pin, some take 2 x 6 pin. If this is your PSU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817171031 ...it really doesn't have the +12V rail capacity for that card. It would probably run, just not for long or very well.
