Title: [WTB] Corsair CX Series - 8 pin to 2x (6+2) PCI-E Cable HELP!
Post by: pokeyjones on February 14, 2015, 10:47:49 AM
Hey All!

Looking for some of the OEM pieces (or better) for my CX750M's. These will be powering C5's so I need 4x PCI-E, two per hashing board. Somehow I've managed to misplace / send as bonus a few of these, thought I had more.

Would like to pickup 2 or 3 of them. They are black in color and work with CX and HX series. Basically an 8 pin adapter with 2x PCI-E connectors on the other end. Looks like:

I'd like to pickup 3-4 of them, or suggestions on what is latest/greatest/best deal.

Thanks!

I'm not sure where you're located but I bought some a few months ago from ebay in the UK.

I need those but in the US. I'm surprised I'm having such difficulty locating them!

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to help me find some of these things stateside quick!


thanks much

I would have like 10,000 of your babies for like one of those cables!

Please do check to see if you've got 8pin to 2x PCI-E for Corsair CX series? Very much need one or two. Are you local? I'm 20148 and willing to meet or pay express ship.

thanks!

Here's what I've got.  4X 8pin(PSU side) to 6/8 pin PCIe(one PCIe connector per cable, 2 pin separate connector so you can use it as 6 in or 8 pin), 2X 6 pin(PSU side) quad-molex, 1X 6 pin(PSU side) dual-molex, 2X 6 pin(PSU side) quad SATA.

So that would give you a total of 4 6/8 pin PCIe connections, 10 molex, 8 SATA.

And the Corsair branded nylon bag that they came in originally. 

They came from an HX850 that I RMAed a while back, Corsair didn't want the cables, just the PSU, and I kept them cause I figured they may come in handy one day (I'm kind of a cable hoarder lol).

$25+shipping to wherever and they're yours.

Let me know if you need some pics to confirm compatibility.

No problem, I know they are difficult to find I had a hard job too. Sounds like quakefiend420 has got what you're looking for :).

Pretty sure that's the one. Wish they had multiple photos as they don't show the PSU connect. The other issue is when you go to purchase one all the vendors are out of stock.

I do think these are the correct cables. Can anyone confirm? Attempting to get 4x PCI-E connects from 2 slots on CX750M.

ideas help appreciated. as well as good recos and where to buy. Still trying to craft the perfect fan replacements. Want quiet and cool. Also kinda want an LED (blue, purple, or vegas rgbp} with different sequencing, likely hang a pull fan out back with LEDs. Still not 100% on final fan setup. Pics to your setups / advice welcomed.

This is the PSU side:

Here's all of them including the bag:

This is a very tempting offer! And only $25, are you sure? I was thinking a bit more, like $40 and buyer pays shipping. Would you take that deal? If so, that's good news.** Because while that's a nice mess of cables you've got, not even one of the cables I need is there. It is like a collection of what I don't need/already have.

Member adaseb has what I need and posted a pic, maybe he'll sell it to me! Going to PM him.

Huh?  Not sure if you're being sarcastic or what here?  Why would you want to pay me more than I'm asking?

You said you needed PCIe cables, right?   There's four of them that came from an HX series PSU, just as you'd asked for.  Not sure how that's everything that you don't need.

Unless this is a snarky/sarcastic way of saying that you can only use cables with 2 PCIe connectors per cable.  If that's the case sorry, I just thought that you needed PCIe connections for a Corsair.  I don't have a mental map of every single cable that I own, I just remembered that I had some left over from a Corsair HX series PSU, which was what you'd specifically mentioned.  I did describe them accurately when I said "one PCIe connector per cable, 2 pin separate connector so you can use it as 6 in or 8 pin".

Forget it then, I guess.

Yeah, I was being a dick. I hit delete on that and thought I had deleted it. Because it was awful dickish.

I apologize.

What I thought would be a simple task has proven most difficult. To my credit I did specify "Basically an 8 pin adapter with 2x PCI-E connectors on the other end. Looks like:" and qualified that as running an S5 with single 750, which has the two 8pins I've always used to run SX Antminers. There are a number of six pin SATA & Peripheral slots on the PSU, but unless I've been missing something those are not to be used.

I did think your price was high! Anyway, my bad, didn't mean to be a dick to somebody trying to help. My plan is to pickup a couple of the cable and keep my eye out for a Kenny Powers edition 1300W + and use that to run two C5's.

Apology accepted.  I took a quick look on eBay and saw them selling for $15 per cable, figured $25 was pretty reasonable for 4 plus some others that may come in handy if you had a bare PSU with missing cabling. Maybe not.  Oh well.

Unless this is a snarky/sarcastic way of saying that you can only use cables with 2 PCIe connectors per cable.  If that's the case sorry, I just thought that you needed PCIe connections for a Corsair.  I don't have a mental map of every single cable that I own, I just remembered that I had some left over from a Corsair HX series PSU, which was what you'd specifically mentioned.  I did describe them accurately when I said "one PCIe connector per cable, 2 pin separate connector so you can use it as 6 in or 8 pin".

Forget it then, I guess.

Yeah, I was being a dick. I hit delete on that and thought I had deleted it. Because it was awful dickish.

I apologize.

What I thought would be a simple task has proven most difficult. To my credit I did specify "Basically an 8 pin adapter with 2x PCI-E connectors on the other end. Looks like:" and qualified that as running an S5 with single 750, which has the two 8pins I've always used to run SX Antminers. There are a number of six pin SATA & Peripheral slots on the PSU, but unless I've been missing something those are not to be used.

I did think your price was high! Anyway, my bad, didn't mean to be a dick to somebody trying to help. My plan is to pickup a couple of the cable and keep my eye out for a Kenny Powers edition 1300W + and use that to run two C5's.

Apology accepted.  I took a quick look on eBay and saw them selling for $15 per cable, figured $25 was pretty reasonable for 4 plus some others that may come in handy if you had a bare PSU with missing cabling. Maybe not.  Oh well.

Thank you, I appreciate that. Again... my fault and I do thank you for actually taking a look and trying to help.

Remember... no good deed goes unpunished!

I'm pretty sure I have what you want.  Will check when I get home.

I would have like 10,000 of your babies for like one of those cables!

Please do check to see if you've got 8pin to 2x PCI-E for Corsair CX series? Very much need one or two. Are you local? I'm 20148 and willing to meet or pay express ship.

thanks!

Here's what I've got.  4X 8pin(PSU side) to 6/8 pin PCIe(one PCIe connector per cable, 2 pin separate connector so you can use it as 6 in or 8 pin), 2X 6 pin(PSU side) quad-molex, 1X 6 pin(PSU side) dual-molex, 2X 6 pin(PSU side) quad SATA.

So that would give you a total of 4 6/8 pin PCIe connections, 10 molex, 8 SATA.

And the Corsair branded nylon bag that they came in originally.  

They came from an HX850 that I RMAed a while back, Corsair didn't want the cables, just the PSU, and I kept them cause I figured they may come in handy one day (I'm kind of a cable hoarder lol).

$25+shipping to wherever and they're yours.

Let me know if you need some pics to confirm compatibility.

Yes, some photos would be excellent, please.


This is the PSU side:

This is the PCIe side with the optional 2 pin to make it an 8 pin connector.

Here's all of them including the bag:

If I get payment soon I can get them on their way tomorrow, I prefer BTC/LTC.  Will need exact address for shipping quote and will need to know what speed of shipping you want.

This is a very tempting offer! And only $25, are you sure? I was thinking a bit more, like $40 and buyer pays shipping. Would you take that deal? If so, that's good news.** Because while that's a nice mess of cables you've got, not even one of the cables I need is there. It is like a collection of what I don't need/already have.

Member adaseb has what I need and posted a pic, maybe he'll sell it to me! Going to PM him.


** If $40 sounded good, that would make a good starting bid here:

No worries.  Free bump for ya.

I do have a hard time believing that with all the PSU's out there in and out of use some miner hasn't come up with a cable or two for me. Boo fucking hoo... but I thought this was a more supportive and community type board.

But I guess it really is a Dogie eat Dogie world out there, eh?

I think he's actually already moved on to a different PSU or some such.

No worries, I have various cables laying around from some RM850's & HX850's. I've had to RMA a few power supplies last year and they always sent new cables with the PS.

I am interested! I solved the initial problem with a Hail-Mary to

so now I've got another of the cable, but I need another and would love to have a backup or two.

If you still have them let's make this happen.

thank you!!

A fiver shipped for a cattail? I can do that. Can you post a pic, please?

funny, too. i just broke out a second 750 and am running 1 to 1 cables. 1500 watts to a machine that needs 600. Tempted to see how fast it will go!
