[SOLVED] Sata to 6pin

[Deleted member 1718685]

So i got hp compaq 8300 elite and since it has different psu there is not any molex in it so could i use sata to 6 pin to power my r7 360 2gb card in it or is it not safe to use sata to power gpu this way?

Don't do this.
If your PSU does not have the proper connectors, you need a new PSU that does.
However, a real ATX spec PSU that has the proper connectors may not have the right connectors for your motherboard.

So since i cant get any aftermarket psu for this specific mobo will it be safe if i used this to convert aftermarket psu to work with my mobo?

Any adapter off the PSU is suboptimal.
