SaiKoKilla Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 (edited) So I finally got all my parts... Asus N56JN-DS71 (internal nvidia 840m card with 376.33 driver) EXP GDC Beast v8.4 EVGA gtx970 Old 480w Antec power suppy Or so I thought. Turns out my EVGA GTX 970 might need a 6pin m-m cable? I did this instead with the cables provided to me by EVGA/EXP GDC Beast. http://imgur.com/a/eLog9 Powersupply plugged in through the 8pin adapter. 6pin plugged directly into gtx970 with two 4pin power supply plugs Nothing in the 6pin hole on the EXP GDC Beast I plugged it in and didn't detect it in my device manager. What's the next step? I can't find a good guide about what to do next. I was really hoping I'd just plug it all together and POOF, it'd magically work. I have an internal nvidia 840m with 376.33 driver version Should I downgrade drivers to get it to work? Do I 6pin m-m cord as a necessity? Is there a guide somewhere? Any need to change the switches on my GDC Beast? Edited January 8, 2017 by SaiKoKilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Another Tech Inferno Fan Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 It doesn't matter how it's done, but both 6-pin connectors on the card need to be powered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
