To start off.. In the future I plan on running 2 of these 1080 ftw2's. And I do not have a modular power supply.
System:
I7 6700k
Evga gtx 1080 ftw2 running at 2050core/5500mem
Corsair 450d woth corsair cx750 Psu
Asus z170 Pro Gaming Motherboard
16gb 3200 ddr4 G Skill V series ram
1 500gb ssd
1 1tb ssd
Both are Samsung 850 evos
3 140mm Corsair intake fans..2 in front 1 pulling in under the gpu
2 140mm corsair output fans up top.
1 120mm corsair output fan in back
Air movement is amazing in this tower..I cant even get my single 1080 to reach 70° at full load..never really even hits 60c.
Question: Ok..so this powersupply has 2 different cables coming out able with 6+2 connections.
Thing is..each cable has a tail on it with an additional 6+2 connector. So..I am powering the one gpu with one cable and its tail..is this ok?
2nd Question.. Someday I plan on running 2 of these cards for4k gaming.. Will I be able to with this current setup? And what HB Bridge would I need to get?
Thanksguys! Community at toms hardware has been a lot of help to me in thepast..easily best forums Ive been on for tech help

. I did find some details that 750-850w is needed for the 1080 in sli.. So I was thinking since I am using the ftw2 cards..(which I believe draw less wattage if Im not mistaken) I would get by with the 750w
