    Default 2 pin ATX thing..

    yeh i got new GeForce 9800GTX+ and other stuff but the top of the gfx card theres 2 6 pin connectors, with the PSU it has 2 6 pin's (each of them has a 2 pin power connector coming off it) Do i plug both in and what do i do with the 2 pins? o.0

    I've never used gfx card which needed individual power supply before so


    thats the connectors i get with PSU and theres 2 of them.

    Plug both the 6 pin PCI-E cables in. Leave the extra two pins. I assume they are for when you have a graphics card that uses an 8 pin PCI-E connector, so you just attach the two together and create an 8 pin PCI-E.

    So yeah, just plug the 6 pin connectors in and leave the other 2 pin connectors.

    Really, you shouldn't go by what we say, it could be sending too much power if you plug both in. I would personally read the PSU instruction manuals.
