Also, on a side note, does anyone here know anything about the R9 290x? Im trying to find out the name of the cable that plugs into the power supply. I'm short one for my rig.
If you're referring to the 8 and 6 pin power cables to power the card, they are simply called PCIe power cables. Any decent power supply will have a couple..., but the card also comes with a molex adapter to power from an older PSU. But... seriously... if you're shelling out on a GPU like the 290x, you want to feed it nice clean juice... so invest in decent PSU... it will pay off in the long run!
I have to running right now getting 1600-1700kh. Is this good for two of these cards?
And for some reason, The PSU only came with 2 PCIe cables, strangely. But i heard it was a good PSU, and it hasn't let me down yet
