i got my hands on a new HP Z440 but obviously more designed for business/cad but i will be using for general and gaming

Intel Xeon E5 1630 v3 3.7ghz
16gb ram
512ssd

700 watt psu

I will be adding 3 extra drives and the GPU.

I have enough sata/power cables to supply drives in each slot but has no 6pin for GPU and only 1 available molex.

Can this 1 molex supply a 1060? can i use a molex to 6pin adapter..
even though most adapter are 2molex to 6pin

or do i need a new psu even though this is powerful enough


any advise be great.. this is quite a high end meaty PC just not your average gaming PC


thanks
 
ps... I have the pc just not added my drives and awaiting for the gpu to arrive.. hoping to build all this weekend so need to make sure i have the cables ready.


thanks again
 
just taking a photo for you guys and then i noticed the front fan has 2 large ish cables going into.. a 90cm fan wouldn't need these cables, i can see its small cable going to the motherboard.

further inspection they are 2 6pin cables and they are just docked into the fan to keep out of the way.. not actually being used.... so i have 2... cool


so i should be ok... now just waiting for stock of my asus 1060


thanks all
