Hi,

I have a 700W power supply and I would like to power a second 1080ti with it. However, my power supply only has one double 8pin (6+2) cable. I'm putting a picture of it in the link bellow.

I would like to know if it safe to attach a power splitter cable to each of my 8 pin cables in order to have four 8 pin cables and power the second gpu. Something such as this:

Thank you in advance,

You can use that cable but you have to remember in After burner you gotta reduce the power from 60% ~ 80% if you run both cards on 100% power it might be risky but not that much.

I have few GPU and if you have power metter you can see its not a big deal Smiley
