    Question 8-pin PEG connectors...

    Hey,

    Am I right in thinking the current HX 520 and 620 power supplies don't have 8-pin PEG connectors (only the current 6-pin standard)? If so, when will we see PSU's with a pair of 8-pin connectors for SLI/Crossfire. I'd like to get a HX 620, but I want it to be future-proof!

    Cheers,

    Suman

    As I understand it, the 8 pin plug is backwards compatible with the 6 pin connector on current cards but, I could be wrong there. However, we will have an option available for the newer cards by the time they actually make it to market.
