Hi, I will be getting a fully modular power supply, I have read the online manual and looked up some videos and information, but I still have a few questions to wrap my head around these cables.
EPS 12V 8 Pin ports.
For your motherboard/cpu power, PCIE 8 pin will not work in this 8 pin connection, why is that? Why did they make non universal cables for same pins Layouts?
PCIE 6+2 Pin for your graphics card I am familiar with the 6+2 cables.
PCIE 6+2 + 6 Pin. Purpose: ???? What is the difference between this and the 6+2? They are both 8 pin slots, can you plug a 6 pin pcie cable into these 8 port slots but not the other ones that don't specify +6?
Sata Ports, Manual says 4 Sata 5 pin. They are 6 pin connections, what does that mean?
Perif: 3 molex 4 pin, this looks exactly like the sata ports, a 6 pin connector, whats the difference?
is it saying you can plug 3 molex devices into this port?
Perif/Sata 2 molex 4 pin + 2 sata 5 pin. Again, what is this?
What are the ratings of these ports? The manual gives watts, amps, temps, but says nothing about loading these circuits, im assuming its a bad idea to daisy chain all your devices to a single port, but im assuming you could considering the adapter options you have for cables, but nothing tells you not to? If I ran 2 pumps from a duel molex adaptor into a single port would that be overloading the circuit?
How do these 6 and 8 pin connectors work electrically? Is it just 3 and 4 12 V circuits?
Thanks for your help
