XFX GeForce 9800 GT

Hi All,

Just wanted to know if this GPU has 1 or 2 6 pin PCI-e power connectors?

On the XFX site is says one, but then looked at a model on the Nvidia site and it said 2!

Also does this produce 1080p HD output?

Thanks

On the Nvidia site, it says it need 2x6 pin connectors for the 9800GTX+, but I can tell you that my XFX9800GTX+ 512MB only need/use 1x6pin connecter. So if XFX says it only needs one, the it only needs one.

The main reason why is XFX only need one 6 pin connector, I would image XFX's custom design PCB actually allows it to use less power, thus only need one 6 pin connectors instead of two for the reference PCB design.

My 9800GT has no power plugs!

Do you have the XFX Richard?
Thanks

My 9800GT has no power plugs!

That's probably because yours is a green downclocked version.

Yes, mine is XFX clocked at 550, I use it for Physx.
