Review on ⚡ StarTech.com PCI Express 6 pin to 8 pin Power Adapter Cable - Efficient Power Conversion for Advanced GPU Performance - PCIEX68ADAP, Black, Yellow by Terrance Castle

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A great solution - both as an extension cable and for converting from 6-pin to 8-pin.

This is a lot better than the dual molex solution I own - it's a lot less hassle and a lot safer. My dual molex cable also proved to be of much lower quality - its pins are ridiculously easy to disconnect from their molex sockets. (Of course, you'll need a 6-pin PCI-E power cable connector for this.) It doubles as a power strip, considering it's a 6+2 solution. My Sapphire ATI Radeon 3850 AGP uses an 8-pin PCI-E connector. I use this and this here and now and bought another in that order. Such StarTech products are of very high quality.

Pros
  • Power cord
Cons
  • Concerns me
