2 6pin power supply for Graphics card?

[sammyboy2]

I was wondering, If i get a graphics card which requires 2 6pin cables can I use it along with my case which requires 3 4pin cables? (its for the fans (x3) and they have 3 cables, 2 4 pin cables, one with 4 which stick out and one with 4 that have holes in them, and they have a cable to plug into mobo for fan control.)

PSU:

Case:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B004REHPEE/ref=oh_o02_s00_i00_details

So my question is, with that PSU will i be able to power my case and possibly 2 6pin graphics card? (one is fine because the PSU has 1x PCI-E connector)

P.S( The picture has a list of the cables that come with the PSU)

Thanks all.

what kind of graphics card is it. It is true that 2 molex can make a 6 pin though.

Depends because I have been looking at graphics cards which only need 1 6 pin and others that need 2

From what I can tell the graphics card Im looking at comes with adaptors for the extra 6 pins like this one http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=7192161&CatId=3669

so assuming you have enough connections left and urs comes with the adaptors u should be ok

Fans don't generally connect to the power supply; they connect to the motherboard. If you have more fans than headers, molex adapters for fans are usually of a pass-through design and can still be used to provide a connection to a 6-pin adapter. Fans don't usually draw more than a few watts so multiple connections are unlikely to be an issue.

I don't know about that PSU you are looking at. I don't think it is a good one but like I said I don't know that one. But here is a list of cables for you to look at.

You should see my daisy chained fan connectors. I'm running 3 fans off a single molex with those adapters chained together

I agree with DM186 on the dubious quality of the power supply. I've had 2 cheap power supply cook 2 different motherboards. One of them even killed the CD writer.

As for fan connections, the fans don't draw that much power so you can connect them all together if you wish. Just be aware that if you hook them into a power supply they will run at full speed all the time unless you modify the adapters.
