Hi everyone hope you guys can help me i searched the internet couldnt find anything i got the asus B250 mining expert mobo and im going to use it for gaming (it was cheap) i just want to know must i plug in my molex conecters from my psu to the molex conecters on the mobo? or is it only if you have more than one gpu?

thanks in advance
 
Well, I would read the manual. But it seems to me that the full sized PCI-E slot is a normally functioning PCI-E 3.0 slot. So your graphics card should go there, without powering the molex headers on your motherboard, only power the PCI-E 6 or 8 pins on your graphics card itself.

Hi Taeioum i did checkout the manual and it states that if you are mining you have to use the 3 molex conecters but it is a regular pcie16x slot so to me it must work without the molex i will anyway check it out and reply ...btw give me 2 months to reply XD still in the buying process
