HDPlex Cable Question

[fminus]

Quick question,

I am making my own 8pin GPU power cable for my HDplex + GTX1070 .The one that came with the HDplex is 8pin to 8+6 pin. I really need just a straight 8 pin to 8 pin cable.


I noticed missing a wire on the upper left of the connector that you connect to the PSU. Instead it has two coming out of the lower left. If I make my own cable is it ok to have a straight 8pin to 8pin connection?

Check the pinout on the specs page here: http://www.hd-plex.com/HDPLEX-300W-Hi-Fi-DC-ATX-Power-Supply-16V-24V-Wide-Range-Voltage-Input.html

The pinout of the PCIe is the same as the CPU, so a straight 1 to 1 cable will NOT work!
