Corsair 8 pin to 6 pin radeon 5770

[egley]

Hello,

I have a Corsair TX650M power supply and an ATI Radeon HD 5770 graphics card.

The card wants a 6 pin connector.

The power supply has 6 pin connectors, but the other end is what looks like a SATA connector for one cord, and the other 6-pin has the old 4 pin power connectors.

There are also 8 pins which connect to the power supply, and the other ends have 6 pins.

Which ones do I use for my card?

Thanks very much!

The 8-to-6 pin connector may work.

More than likely, you will need to use one of the 8-pin (blue) connected to your power supply and with a 6+2 pin connector to your graphics card (the +2 being unneeded).

yep it's the one with blue 8pin on the end that connects into the psu and 6+2 on the other end.

@suat
all the wires are black on this psu
