Power supply is a Raidmax RX-1000AE. I have 2 cables plugged into the 6 pin peripheral sata ports. I have 2 extra 6+2 cables labeled PCI-E.
However the pins do not line up on the psu or the card. The 2 pin side has both pegs rounded yet the slots have 1 square and 1 round. The 6 pin only fits in 1 way so i can't move them around.
I have a spare cable with an 8 pin that will connect to the card OR the psu. But the other ends are 6+2 that won't fit.
Can I plug the 6 pin to the Peripheral sata slot and power the card with the 8 pin and 6 pin that fit?
This will potentially power one card, but im trying to sli, so do I need another similar cable? Are there different 8 pin or 6+2 cable configs?
Thanks a ton in advance!
