[SOLVED] 1080ti Flex ATX Problem 2x6 to 2x8

[Luckyboy1996]

Hi!

First time posting.

BUT.

Question is: I have a system as followed:

Zotac 1080ti Mini
i5 9600KF
MSI Z390I MPG GAMING EDGE AC
Corsair SF600 600W 80+ Gold
mw 970 Evo.
RAM: 3200Mhz Corsair something.

Anyway, i want to build this computer in the new Velka 5 case.
And then i need to get a new PSU.
So i was looking for one all over the web, (i live in sweden)
And found this:

89.59US $ 44% OFF|Computer Power Supply Small 1U Computer PSU Flex ATX 600W for ITX PC Full Modular Power Supply Small 1U Computer PSU|PC Power Supplies| - AliExpress

Smarter Shopping, Better Living! Aliexpress.com

www.aliexpress.com

I was curious if this would power my graphics card which has 2x8 PCIe connectors to it.

What do you guys think? Is it possible?

A fake certification badge doesn't exactly elicit any interest in using this, nor does the additional fact that the fake certification badge is specifically dummied up to fraudulently look like an 80 Plus badge. Nor is there any indication as to the configuration of the rails, another giant, blaring klaxon.

I wouldn't buy any PSU off aliexpress.

It's also very difficult to buy a Flex ATX PSU that's above 500W and the bar to trust one above that should be extremely high. I wouldn't trust this PSU to power a bucket of chocolate frosting.

I'd personally be uneasy about a 1080 Ti on a 500W PSU and my recommendation would be to either ditch the idea of a Flex ATX case or ditch the 1080 Ti for something that uses less power.

But if you do want to go ahead, you need to source a 500W by a legitimate manufacturer. A dodgy "600W" Flex PSU? You might as well call 90 Plus the percentage what your insurance company should increase your monthly fire insurance bill.

Hi!
Thank you very much for answering.
I understand what you mean, though in a scenario where i buy a silverstone fx500 which can be stated as ”serious” it seems like you dont believe in the build anyway? How come?

Thanks!

Just kind of a tight squeeze, overhead-wise. I get personally uncomfortable when GPU spike plus maximum CPU draw gets in the neighborhood of 50-75W under max.
