Hi there,
I have just finished building my first pc build. The pc worked fine without both pcie GPU plugs were plugged in. My psu only came with one 6+2 pin connector, so I went on ebay and bought a y splitter: 8 pin to 2 6+2 pins. when this adapter is installed, the pc just wouldn't turn on. when I plugged the 6+2 pin by itself, the pc boots but doesn't detect the card, same thing when I only plug in the 6 pin. It would be much appreciated if someone could find a solution, as I was very annoyed to find my first build went very wrong
My specs:
Motherboard: intel DHC61CR
CPU: i5 3470 3.2ghz
PSU: Sumvision X3 600W
GPU: MSI GTX 970
Thank you!
