Mining rig burning smell!

[philipma1957]

yeah I was extra cautious as a molex cable  can usually handle 2 lesser power cards. A sata cable not so much

he did get a very good set of power supplies in the 1300 watt EVGA's with enough cables to do his setup safely.

Thanks!
Another gpu is about to arrive and is a Radeon 6700 XT that has 2 power connectors: 1 8-pin and 1 6-pin.
On my 2 psus, i already have used most of the power connectors dedicated to the gpus, but there are other 2 6-pin connectors labeled as "Perif1", "Perif2" and another 8-pin connector labeled as "CPU2".
I wish to know if i can safely use these connectors to power the new 6700 XT, that is the CPU2(8-pin) and one of the 2 PerifX(6-pin) connectors.
Thanks again.

this will work , but be sure you check that it wired correctly.

i test it with a meter.

it will do about 175 watts safely maybe 200 your new card should be okay with it.

Yes i already have 12 of these splitters, so do you mean i can use 1 splitter to connect my 6700 XT to the 8-pin CPU2 connector of one of my psus?
And one of the two 6-pin connectors(labeled as Perif1 and Perif2) to power the riser?

yes all from same psu . but make absolutely sure that you have a cpu to pcie splitter.

if you use the cpu jack on the psu and the cpu cable to the proper splitter it works.

I have one splitter coming to my house today.

it must be  cpu to 2 pcie

not pcie to. 2 pcie

give me about an hour i can check if mine came in today.

But in general, the 8-pin splitters(1 female to 2 males) shouldn't overload the single 8-pin source connector?
If a gpu needs one 8-pin and one 6-pin plugs to be powered, doesn't need more power than a single 8-pin source plug can manage?
So is it safe to use these splitters?

assume he has the right one
assuming it was wired correctly and not defective
a cpu cable should be able to do 225 watts max
spilt it into 2 pcie plugs
have a third cable feed the riser. even a dedicated sata doing only 1 riser.

you should be able to do 175  24/7/365 on the  cpu/pcie adapter
and 50 24/7/365 on the sata to the riser.

or 175+50=225 24/7/365

he said he is doing a 6700 to a 6700xt. if he sets the power correctly it pulls under 175

he should be good

if he wired a nvidia 3090 fuck no he will melt shit.

The CPU to PCIE power adapters just arrived and they work perfectly.
First, i plugged the psu bundle cpu power cable, to the psu itself and then i plugged these new cpu to pcie adapters, to the previous one and they fit perfectly.
So any cpu connector of my psus, gives me 2 8-pin pcie connectors to power a gpu with 2 8-pin power connectors such as my new 6700 XT.
To power the risers too, i have to use another cpu to pcie adapter, using the 6-pin part of another cpu to pcie adapter cable, plugged to another cpu bundle power cable.
Now i buy other 2 more, so i can use all of my psus cpu power connectors, to power the last 12th gpu that is about to arrive.
Thanks!
