PSU cable config for a gtx 780

[stefandragos]

I have a nexus r3-6300 630w power supply and with to buy a gigabyte gtx 780 graphics card. My problem is that the PSU has 1x6+2 pin cable(not modular) and one 6 pin cable (modular) with the possibility to plug in another 6 pin cable(if i could only find one to buy). Can i use an adapter to get another 8 pin cable?
My specs are i7 4770, gigabyte h87-d3h, 8gb corsair and the power supply is reviewed here http://www.techwarelabs.com/nexus-rx-6300/

You need a new PSU.

 

[stefandragos]

doesn't it have enough wattage?

If I knew it was a quality power supply I'd say you can get an adapter.
I am not familiar with that brand.

All you need is a quality 600 watt, and adapters are sold every ware, computer parts are sold.

Cards usually come with adapters.

You have a 8 and a 6, that's all you need

i was thinking of this http://i.imgur.com/s5C8BwZ.jpg?1 will this be of any use? if not then why not?
and please try to understand that is not like i don't want to change the psu it's just that i wish i could postpone it a bit and buy the graphic card now...

Why not buy any other gtx 780 that needs only 1x6pins and 1x8pins power connector?
Even gigabyte has these.

I would want a quality power supply running my 780.

 

[stefandragos]

i have the following options http://www.mediadot.ro/placi-video/filtre/model-780/ (it's in romanian, the currency is leu and 1 euro=4.4 leu or 1dollar=3.4 leu)
so a gtx 780 is about 500 euros and up, with the gigabyte version being the cheaper one

Look for a Seasonic PSU.

I updated my previous post with a link to gigabyte.That seems to be this one,
http://www.mediadot.ro/placi-video/placa-video-gigabyte-geforce-gtx-780-3072mb-gddr5-windforce-3x-rev-20
[strike]this should only need 1x6pin+1x8pin.[/strike]
the v2 version also needs 2x8pin.

Have been looking and the next really only should use 1x6pin+1x8pin,

[stefandragos]

would this do: Seasonic M12II-620 Bronze EVO Edition?

You're quick

I again updated my previous post.

[stefandragos]

these are my options http://www.mediadot.ro/surse/ where
producator - manufacturer
putere - power
certificare eficienta - efficiency
racire - cooling
sursa modulara da - modular PSU
sursa modulara nu - not modular
tip - atx version

What do you suggest?

L.E. @Vic 40 i don't know about asus... i had an asus gtx 9800+ and a very bad experience and than changed it to a gigabyte gtx 260 super oc which i currently own and never looked back

 

[Vic 40]

I don't see why you should upgrade your psu if the asus should be good.It's up to you.

 

[stefandragos]

what PSU do you recommend for the gigabyte 780 windforce 3x? Will a Corsair CX600M or a Seasonic M12II-620 Bronze EVO Edition do?

Either one is enough for the gtx780, if the Seasonic fits your budget, it is a better choice.

i know this is a lot but could you please take a look at this website http://www.mediadot.ro/surse/ and help me find a PSU suited for my rig
as you open the page you will find the following:
FILTRE = means filter search by
Producator = manufacturer
Putere(W) = power(W)
Certificare eficienta = efficiency 80 and options
Racire = cooling - only one option that is active
Sursa modulara = should the PSU be modular or not (Da-Yes Nu-No)
Tip = Atx version i guess

L.E. nevermind...
