    X850 XT PE PCI-e straight 6-pin conn psu ?

    the people who have this card no that it comes with a cable that goes from molex and than to six pin and harddrive...but i have a loose six-pin connector comming straight from my psu aswell... can i use that aswell or should i stick with the one that goes to the harddrive aswell ?

    I assume you're referring to a splitter that splits a 6 pin and divides it between your X850 and your HDD.

    You should be able to use the 6 pin straight from your PSU and that's what I would do.

            as long as it is 6pin/pciexpress it will work. for the future, but I guess you alredy know that because it worked.

              yup, i was asking it because i though maybe the card and harddrive needed to communicate or something .. not the case though, ):)
