Some of you may know that my PSU blew up recently, well i have a question, can i test my gfx card without the 2 6 pin PCI-E connectors?
the PSU i have in this rig is pretty poor and does not have connectors, i just wanna see if she posts. so i can rule out that the PSU took the gfx with it.
For some cards you can, the old ATI 9000 series for instance (possibly others), this doesn't seem to have any affect on 2D usage but in 3D it is barely usable if I recall.
The card will probably shriek at you. I'm not sure it would show anything on screen.
