I'm looking for a psu with both a 6pin and 8 pin connecter for my msi r9 290x twin frozr gpu. Does anyone have any recommendations for a 600w - 650w psu that has these connectors?
 
Solution
The 6\8 pin connectors are universal. If you can't get the system to boot on a brand new Corsair PSU I would start looking into other reasons. Make sure your GPU is properly seated and all that as a first step.
