S SuperSniperJimmy Reputable Jun 24, 2014 7 0 4,510 Dec 27, 2015 #1 I'm about to purchase an NVIDIA GTX 970 and I noticed that there are two 6 PCI ports on it. My PSU has a 8 and a 6+2 cord. Can I just switch out the 8 pin with another 6+2? My current card is an ASUS GTX 770 and my PSU is a RoseWill Hive 650W.

Solution SPgamer007 Dec 27, 2015 Just connect two single 6 pin cables from the PSU in the GPU,all GPU PCI slots should be filled.
