IIRC, the card had a 6 pin and an 8 pin socket. So one of the ATI cables needed an adapter (6 pin to 8 pin) with it.Hey I was reading your posts on some other guys thread regarding the same power issue and I was a little confused with what you said. You told the guy to use 2 ati cables and a 6 to 8 pin adapter for the other 6 pin cable. That is three cables but you did not state the location of third power source. I understand the two coming from the logicboard but where does the third cable's power source come from?
