Hi,
Here's my problem, I just purchased a new rig with a z87 maximus vi hero and a GTX 970. Unfortunately my new power supply will only arrive late next week. So i decided to use my old one which has only 1 x 8 pin-connector, 2x6 pin PCI-e and a 4-pin connector. Both z87 and my GTX 970 need a 8 pin-connector to work. But is there a way, without risk. I can make my rig work for a week with this power supply?
I was thinking maybe I could use the 4 pin for my mobo or maybe the 6pin PCI-e for my GTX 970.
My current power supply is an old Antec TruePower Trio 550w and my CPU is a i5 4690k.
Thank you community!
