I plan on overclocking soon, but I have a question first. I'm powering my ant with one 8 to 6+2 pin and one 8 to 6+2 + 6+2 "L" cable (8 pin goes to 6+2, and that goes to another 6+2). Should I use this to overclock? Or is the the L cable essentially the same thing as the regular cable? And if you are going to overclock, don't you need 4, since the miner has 2 boards (two per board, even power distribution?) Thanks.
The L cable will nearly be as good as 2x 6 pins, but the 8 to 6 pin will be worse than a normal 6 pin due to the increased cable length and additional connectors. Its not about even power distribution when overclocking, its about keeping cable temperatures low and safe.
