Title: RTX 2070 Supper 1x 6-pin + 1x 8-pin- Can I use an adapter? Post by: cryptosz2 on February 15, 2021, 02:45:26 PM Hello Fellows, newbie here. Quick hardware/power pins question.
I just created my small mining machine from spare gaming PC I have. I will just stay with 2 GPUs. I have 2 PCI slots: 1st. port - I got RX580 8GG pluged in directly 2nd port - I got a raiser card with Molex/Sata power connector. I have RTX 2070 Super arriving in few days. My 1000V PCU has 2x 6+2 PCI Connectors and bunch of molex/sata ones. 580 is using first 6+2 (8) Pci, but 2070 needs 6+8. so I'm short 6 pin connector. Im guessing that I can't use 8 pin to 6+8 adaptor, right?? Is connecting to SATA is my only option? Regards mike Title: Re: RTX 2070 Supper 1x 6-pin + 1x 8-pin- Can I use am adapter? Post by: Apostlekin$$$ on February 15, 2021, 04:05:26 PM Buy a 6 pin to 8 pin molex connector, it works for me, I know many will say no or something but I still use it anyways and it's been running for weeks with no problem, it's available on ebay and Amazon I guess

Post by: Claudio99 on February 15, 2021, 04:59:15 PM This will work perfectly ok, there is also another that has female mouth for 6pin and the head is 8pin, check the image below, it's what I used and it works, just make sure your power supply have enough watts power, like 1000 watts or so

Don't use a splitter unless you know what you're doing. Lots of people wil tell you you can do something but it doesn't mean you should. There are several recent threads discussng your question, do some reading. Title: Re: RTX 2070 Supper 1x 6-pin + 1x 8-pin- Can I use am adapter? Post by: batsonxl on February 15, 2021, 06:03:30 PM What kind of PSU is that has only 6+8pins?
1000w Psu at least must have 6 or 8 pieces of 8 pin pcie power connectors Title: Re: RTX 2070 Supper 1x 6-pin + 1x 8-pin- Can I use am adapter? Post by: cryptosz2 on February 15, 2021, 06:22:50 PM It is 1000V Gold Plus
Connectors:1 x 20/24pin Main Power, 1 x 4/8pin 12V, 2 x PCI 6+2pin 7 x SATA, 4 x Peripheral my 580 needs 1x8 pin my 2070 needs 1x6 and 1x8 Thank You Mike |
