I have two 8 pin PCIe cables but I need a 6 pin cable for a new GPU that I'm getting. From what I've read pins 1,2,3 are +12v and 4-8 are all ground cables.
I do not have the oem cables anymore.
Would it then be okay to make a cable where 1,2,3,5,6,7 go to a 6 pin connector and pin 4 loops back to pin 8 on the PSU side?
If I had a 6+2 cable I would just zip tie it down, but the GPU connectors I have are a solid 8 pin 6+2 block, I can't disconnect the +2.
PSU is a Corsair RMx 750 white edition PSU.
