9800gx2 8pin pci power

[leftheaded]

do i need to go ahead and buy a 6pin to 8pin pci power adapter for my 9800gx2? or does one come in the box? evga

Usually one in the box...
If it does not work you could just connect the two pins to the grounds on your 6-pin cable.

EDIT:

...or just plug it in...

That's an option too.

Mine came with both a two 4-pin molex to 6-pin adapter and a two 4-pin molex to 8-pin adapter.

But if it's for the rig in your sig, your Corsair HX620W comes with two 6+2 pin plugs anyhow.

thanks for the replies. actually, i just ordered a PCP&C 1KW turbo-cool, but won't have it until next week. i'll try the HX620W first since it's already setup, but I may swap for the PCP&C eventually

The HX620W will be more than enough for that GX2, hell I ran two X2's on that PSU

Yep, more than enough
