do you have to use two 8-pin

there are 4 pin to 8 pin connectors that come with it, but yes you need 2 8 pins...you could also get the 6 pin to 8 pin on amazon if you'd like but i run mine with what came with it (4 to 8)

This board requires four 4-pin ATA plugs. The board comes with the four 4-pin ATA plugs. Make sure your have a power supply that will accommodate these plugs. I had to buy adaptors (about $2 each) to plug into the SATA plugs.

Yes. And personally I will recommend to use SMPS of 700W or more with atleast Bronze certified.

A 6 pin and 8 pin are needed. Plan for the card to use at least 255w of power as well.

no you would need to buy 2, thats what I did. Then you have take one of the pins out. its easy to figure out :)

If you don't see a 4 pin connector you most likely have an 8 pin connector divided into two 4 pin connectors. Use that instead. Your psu has to have a 4 pin or 8 pin motherboard connector though

You only need to connect the two 8 pin's for regular over clocking. The extra 6 pin is for when you want to push it. The stock clock speed is like 1000 core and 1475 mem off the top of my head

I don't think it's a good idea. While the sockets are the same, the core count is higher in the RM series. If the pin outs are the same, you might only be using one core in the RM series, and what's the point of that? Have you asked AMD support?

Philip is correct. Your need an additional 6 pin outlet from your power supply

I have just now tried it and I am using 2 ports at the same time with no problem.

Yes, you need six pin power. Otherwise it will just lock up. I had that problem even though I had a six pin power plug in my old PSU but it was unable to meet the amperage requirement for this card on the 12V rail

No it's not possible paring more than one at the same time, you should discconect the current device if you want to connect a different device.

It won't work. This is a splitter, so you can't do an input and output for the two ports.

As long as you don't need more than 2 8 pin power connectors and it meets the power needs of the rest of your system

Yes,there are actually two 4 pin power connectors. You'll have to separate them.

It comes with a 2 mobex to 8 pin and a 2 mobex to 6 pin as I recall. I don't recommend running off of mobex power but it certainly works. Try to use mobex from different rails.

Yup, three pin will go on 4 pin no problem just make sure you line it up right.

When they say 6 + 2 (OR Anything like it) it means the connector has a 6 pin part and a 2 pin part. that way if you need 6 pins for your video card (because some are 6, some are 8, some are dual of either) then you just plug it in. if you need 8 pin then then 2 pin slides onto the side of the 6 making 8. (just like when they were converting 20 pin atx motherboard power connectors to 24 pin, they shipped 20 + 4 so that either would work.

If they are in fact 4+4 pcie connectors then two (2 x 8) in each card should be fine.if not you can get molex to pcie adaptors 4 +4 molex to one 8 pcie
