NVIDIA Quadro: I plug 6-pin power adapter or connector 8 pin?

I am trying to install my graphics card Nvidia Quadro 6000 on a HP Z820 with a PSU 1125W

The Quadro card: 1x8pin auxiliary power connector and power connector auxiliary 1x6pin.

My questions are

1. in the connection of my power adapter, do I plug the unit into the 8 pin or 6 PIN auxiliary connector?

2. where can I connect the other end of the power adapter?

3. the power adapter must be a HP one or can I use any brand.

4, if it's HP, what is the part number

I would appreciate help on this.

First, it is important to know that there is another interface "6 to 8 pins" which is a feature of power-for - motherboard power ... you don't want that, sure, and connectors plastic is having different shapes.  You can see that he has 4 yellow wires (usually the supply wires) and would not have the sequence of correct wiring of a PCIe 6 to 8 pins supplementary power converter:

I don't know the show, too, is not what you want.  This looks like an 8 pin to two adapter 6 pins.  You want a 6-pin to 8 pin adapter.  Is attached another picture of the nVidia type tells you to do.  If you look at the hyperlink at the top of this post you will find the wiring of 6 pins on 8 wire and for your project, you will probably want to follow the advice of nVidia for best results.  There is power to the ground and 'sense' son to all be correctly connected to the adapter.

There is also some PCIe additional adapters that allow you to convert several sheets supply 4 son "molex" grouping in a single 6-pin PCIe or connector 8.  It is best to not do this if you have a power with official ones built in.  Your the fact, and to check the manual, it looks like your top rated power supply has 3 of these auxiliary PCIe power cords (G1, G2 and G3 will be printed on the side of the end of your 3 card).  On the other hand, offer reduced rated power of the Z820 has only 2 additional PCIe (auxiliary) cords supplied by it.

I don't know if you are forced to use a good 6-8 converter or could if away with plug 6 pin right in the correct position on the plug 8 pins of your videocard directly, according to article of the hyperlink.  I, personally, would get an adapter.

EDIT: Here is a picture of two ends of what is supposed to be a PCIe 6-pin supplementary power adapter PCIe 8 pins.  The first and third power pins 6 pins are officially DC 12v (some references have each of the first 3 pins being 12vDC) and subsequently, the rest are supposed to be a 'sense' or earthed.  When I look at the plug 8-pole end wiring I do not see a ground wire or ground jumper coming to pin 8.  I would not recommend it, unless I'm wrong about his son:

  • Light remains off after plugging in the power adapter.

    I recently bought a replacement battery for my Toshiba Satellite running Windows XP. I started the new charge battery and removed the computer AC adapter to make sure that the battery was functional. However, when I plug the AC adapter in, the backlight is out.  If I restart Windows, the backlight turns on, but if I disconnect/reconnect the AC adapter, the backlight is turned off again. So, the backlight works, but for some reason, she turns to disconnect the AC adapter.

    Hello Pmorawski,

    Thank you for your message.  It is a Toshiba hardware problem and your question would be better suited for Toshiba.
    See you soon

  • HP Pavilion 6500 goes out when the power adapter plugged

    My Pavilion 6500 (specifically dv6623cl) turns off when I plug in the power adapter. If I plug it in, then turn on the laptop, it automaticly turns off before loading windows. If the laptop is already started, and I can plug the power adapter, it immediately turns off. I can charge the battery without any problem, also while the laptop is turned off, but as soon as I turn it on with the adapter plugged it stops, I checked the battery through HP battery check and he said its good, he is holder of a charge very well and everything, the only change made to the laptop hardware wise was an upgrade memory I had no such problems until the upgrade of memory, but I do not see how it would affect the power on the aspect, in order to make a system restore, if ever, I need, the poweradapter must be plugged and theres other system functions that require the adapter complete, it is a question that must be corrected

    any ideads what the problem would be?

    any help is much appreciate

  • Computer HP laptop goes black when the power adapter is connected

    Hello, g ' Day

    I have a HP Envy Sleekbook m6 and just today I realized after plugging in the power adapter tge screen woul go completely black. I can hear the cell phone still in market, but I don't see anything. If I play music until the screen goes black, it stops. I tried to change the power plan to see if that would settle the matter, but it does not work. Is there a way I can fix this?

    Thank you in advance.

    Hi jessiecornwall,

    Thank you for the information. I suggest you go to Device Manager and right click on your graphics card and update was from there. Here is a document of Manager of devices for Windows 8 information which has steps for the error codes you get.

    I am also including this document for an Overview of the switchable graphics or Dual GPU that explains what they are and how they work.

    I hope that this information help, please let me know how it goes.

    Thanks and good luck!

  • Dell Nvidia Quadro 600 reference - adapter provided by Dell dongle (display port &gt; DVI) is missing entries

    A puzzle - DP > DVI adapter dongle supplied with my refurb Precision T3500 is absent from the entries on the side of DVI. [Both the bag of dongle and the dongle have labels with "DP/N 023NVR" and "CN-023NVR-48570-22M-039X-A00"]

    The card is Nvidia Quadro 600 Dell w / 1 DVI port and 1 DP.

    I want to go to DP to VGA *... so I need a second adapter grafted on the dongle from Dell.

    Missing entries are above and below the long horizontal (spade) of entry. All my DVI > VGA adapters have 2 tiny over the shovel and 2 pins below.

    The DVI port on the card fits those 4 pins.

    The dongle does not work.

    Can I just use the hot pin (heat a PIN and create holes) approach... or DVI use these 4 connections?

    If the latter, why NOT the adapter address these connections?

    * Yes, I keep autour monitors until they die - a strategy to continue to pay the mortgage

    If you have Display Port, then you can get a Display port to VGA.

    But they tend to be expensive sometimes more expensive than another monitor that is DVI or VGA vs HDMI

  • No way to prevent "the AC power adapter type cannot be determined" message on XPS M1710? (AC adapter is properly plugged)

    Often, I get the following message between the screens "Dell" and "Windows", when that I start my XPS M1710 when plugged:

    Unable to determine the type of AC power adapter.  The system can start only with a 130 W power adapter or more.  Hit the F1 key to shutdown.  To resolve this problem, try to reconnect the AC adapter.

    This message occurs when the AC adapter is inserted correctly and completely, and that's the Dell adapter supplied with my notebook.  Is there anything I can do (possibly a registry hack) to force the computer to start instead of this message?  Once it gives me this message and I have to press F1 to close it, it takes an extremely long time to go to the "Dell" screen on the chest which follows (1 minute or two).  My battery hold so little cost when that happens, I turn on the laptop when it is plugged in, unplug it when the "Dell" on-screen progress bar finishes, then plug it back when the 'Windows' screen is displayed.

    It is an old laptop and I will soon receive a new, so I won't spend the money to buy a new AC adapter and the battery for XPS M1710, but I'd like to solve this problem, if it can be done otherwise.

    Thank you!

    I used to have this problem until it has just stopped working. Fact of the matter is Dell power supplies are designed for out of normal use. The cable for the tiny pin in the middle is broken inside the brick and was not fixed easily (you'd have to bust open the brick). Horrible design and this officially marks the last machine from Dell, I will never buy. With a registry hack that prevents the audit (ensuring the adapter you are using is Dell to make them more money), adapter is perfectly capable. I have an adapter 130W (XPS L1502X) and because of this my brother (Studio... not sure of the model). Mine came with the laptop at the time of purchase and the power adapter may not be recognized by me or my brothers laptop computer. Now my computer recognizes the cable my brother, but here's the catch: its cable is less common that mine and this can cause serious damage to my machine. When Dell said that it is a "security feature", it is so full of Bull. If that were the case, it would not allow that my brothers cable to go into my machine. Nice one Dell, you have lost a customer and I will make sure that everyone that I go looking for a new laptop does not buy your trash.

    I'm currently waiting on a replacement power brick that I ordered on ebay, so I can charge my laptop once again. Dell will charge you $ 70-80 to do this on eBay it's around $ 30-40 - all avoiding the retail margin.

    I do not throw accusations at Dell for the design of the brick to fail, I'm going off the coast of many positions of electrical engineers who have experienced the same frustrations and have taken it upon themselves to expose this type of scam.

  • Does someone have a MagSafe 2 power adapter whose serial number is located inside the space where the two pins?

    Hi guys!

    I want to know if the power adapter of MagSafe2 that I just bought is genuine or counterfeit.

    I bought a MagSafe2 power adapter that has its serial number located inside the space where the two pins. Its model # is A1424. All the power MagSafe adapters I've seen always have serial number located under the round metal head big (I guess it's called head male or female?). Please see photo for reference.

    If any of you have or had any Apple Store, can you let me know?

    Thank you!

  • Satellite A300 may depend on from when the power adapter plugged

    Hello

    I have a problem with my Toshiba Satellite A300 when the laptop is connected to the power adapter I have no possibility to turn it on, it's only 2-3 seconds once it comes down.
    When Toshiba is enabled with the battery power and I tried to connect the adapter it also goes down.
    I have no problem with the charge itself, but only with working with AC adapter.

    Please help me what can I do with this problem, does anyone has similar problem?

    Hello!

    For me it sounds like a hardware failure of the motherboard if the AC/DC adapter is plugged and the laptop is turned on

    I don't know but how best to m would be if you go to the authorized service provider nearest with the AC/DC adapter. Technicians can check your laptop and swap the motherboard if it of really necessary. The guys are very friendly and helpful!

  • Power adapter can remain plugged in or not?

    Hello!

    I have Toshiba Satellite A10. Can a power adapter stay connected to the power supply and the computer all the time (24/7) or disconnect every night? How, it would be preferable to battery?

    I wish that, because of the good battery works.

    PS Sorry for my English, I'm Russian.

    Hello Francis,.

    said that the adapter should be disconnected during charging the battery in the portable professional past.

    But today, the battery can be plugged into the hole day. The current batteries are fine and the AC adatper and software are also "smart." When the battery is fully charged, the software stops the loading process.

  • Notebook15-r110na Energy Saver: my laptop screen has suddenly started to go black when I need to plug the power adapter

    Laptop screen has just started to go black when I need to plug the power adapter to recharge, if I get screen back to normal.  I have not downloaded anything new recently.  I have download the free 10 Windows but that was months ago.  Any help would be appreciated, but please not too technical as I'm not an expert on computers.

    Maybe the powerplan battery is changed or not properly configured. You can see the current powerplan thanks the battery status bar icon.
    Please check if the powerplan options are correct.
    More specific:
    Brightness updates when it is plugged into the charger OK?

  • is it safe to keep the power adapter plugged into laptop all the time?

    I was constantly using a laptop Pavilion DV6-1230 we 5 years almost always with the power adapter is plugged in. I replaced the battery once. I was told yesterday that this isn't a good idea, because it can lead to a shorter battery hardware and life issues. We buy a new computer and want to know what is the recommended method for the use of current alternative with a laptop. Is always connected OK? Or we stop the computer at the end of the day? The power plug must be removed from the plug?  Appreciate the suggestions and recommendations on best practices in this case.

    Hello:

    It is not a good idea to leave the power cable connected with the battery in the PC.

    You should disconnect the power supply at least once a month even if you move the laptop, run Notepad as needed and let the battery drain down until you get the low battery warning.

    Then load it up.
