Q: What if I want to use
A: EVGA always recommends the use of
card(s), motherboard connections and other auxiliary power connections for optimal power distribution.
Q: Does it matter which end of the cable
A: Yes, the connections going to the power supply, will not have "break downs" like the EPS (CPU) has 4+4 on
one side and full 8-Pin on the other. Another example is the 24-Pin cable, you can see on the PSU side it is a
total of 28 Pins, where the 24-Pin connection will go to the motherboard directly.
appropriately to match the power supply side and connect only the same
supply as referenced on each connector.
Q: I plugged everything in and the system will not POST, or goes into a boot loop.
A: Power the PSU off and double check to make sure all the power connections are firmly seated on the
motherboard and on the PSU side. If the problem persists you will want to try testing the 24-Pin using the
provided PSU tester. If the PSU tests ok, then you will want to try testing the motherboard in "barebones" to get
a POST, removing everything except for the CPU and heatsink, 1 stick of RAM, 24-Pin and 8-Pin power connections.
Q: If I have an issue or a question, can I get support?
A: ALL EVGA products are backed by top tier warranties as well as technical support. Support can be reached for
your power supply at:
