Hello,
i got a question regarding the HP Z620 workstation.
recently bought a dual xeon one, with GTX 960 installed on the 6pin connector.
as i cannot find any other power connector to use neither on the power supply,
nor anywhere else around the board, i'm wondering how a graphic card should be powered that
needs
1 x 8 pin
or
1 x 8 pin + 6 pin
or
2 x 8 pin ?
i know there were some discussions about that in this forum, but i didn't understand
the solution. some said there are adapters to switch 6pin to 8 pin (or 6pin to 2x8pin)??
but how is that possible?
as far i know, 75 watts are max from the pci-e connection, 75 further watts max. for 1x6pin.
so connecting any adapter to that 1x6pin for graphics cards that need far more power would be
against the specification/a danger, right?
and what about dual graphics setup??
would be glad if anyone around could help me with this,
best greetings
Chris
