8-pin PCI-E Cables for Corsair HX620

[SadikP]

I'm in need of a couple 8-pin PCI-E Cable power adapters, does SCAN stock them? I can't find them on the site.

I was directed to SCAN by Yellowbeard (OFFICIAL CORSAIR TECH SUPPORT here @ Hexus)

Would like to get these when I order two ATi 3750x2's (from SCAN, as always)

[SadikP]

i take it the people at SCAN are too busy to help me.

No, we're just looking into this for you now and as such with something like this it's not a simple overnight answer.

I've just spoke with the purchasing manager regarding this and he's currently looking into this and should be liasing with Corsair.

As soon as I get any information, I'll update you all accordingly.

Best Regards,

I looked into this last year (about a month after I had got the psu, the 8 pin comes out) on the hexus/corsair forum.

It seemed from one of the posts, that corsair were prepared to send the cables, but coming from the USA the postage was quite steep, so I left it.

If scan can get them, it would be something to add to my next order.

[SadikP]

@Lee, thanx for the update, it would be great if you can get these in, then I can order a pair of Ati 3870x2's from you guys.

Ant updates with regards to this?

My Corsair HX620 which I got like November has two little pins on the 6 pin PCI-E power cable coming off it. Ill take a pic of it so you know what I mean if you dont already.


-----------------------------> here you go...

Both cables have them, but I canny see it in the pic on the other cable.

[SadikP]

Thanx for that Azza, I know what they look like, only i did not receive any with my PSU. Hence I'm trying to source some

[Azza]

Ah ok.

When did you get yours?

[phearfactor]

Do they plug directly into the back of the power supply through 8pin or is it 6pin on the PSU?

[SadikP]

Ah ok.

When did you get yours?

August-September time

[Lee H]

We are currently liasing with corsair regarding this and should hopefully have some more information in the next day or so.

Best Regards,

[SadikP]

Any further updates with regards to this?

We do have this response directly from Corsair.

"“To avoid UK customers having to pay shipping costs from the US for 6+2-pin PCI-E cables, we have set up a new procedure.

If you live in the UK and require 6+2-pin PCI-E cables for your HX-series modular PSU, please contact Bluebeard (forum.de [at] corsairmemory.com). You will need to include a digital copy of your invoice attached to the email as proof of purchase. Your cable will then be posted to you free of charge.”
