Is this a bad idea?

is there a wiring diagram for that PSU anywhere, I had a quick look and couldn't find one

as long as the mobo and the 2 PCIe connectors are on seperate rails there is a chance that it will be fine... if both the PCIe connectors are on the same rail then I would not use them both as they could then draw 150+75 = 225 over a rail only rated to 216w
you might need to use a molex to 6 pin connector to make sure all 3 cables are on seperate rails

I sent an email to be quiet asking if both the pci-e are on a single 18A rail. I have a feeling they might be but I'd say it would be fine anyway...otherwise they wouldn't have equipped it with an 8pin and 6pin.

75w of the power will come from the pci-e slot which is definitely on another rail so its highly unlikely the titan will use the max capacity of the 8pin+6pin unless overclocking.

• 12 volt rail 1: OCP turns at more than 37 amps from stress
• 12 volt rail 2: OCP turns at more than 36 amps from stress
• 12 volt rail 3: OCP turns at more than 36 amps from stress

How did this turn out then? I guess from the lack of response since the 27th, you've destroyed your pc? :P
