8800 GTX - did I get the wrong PSU?

I was trying to find out if I needed to connect to both power connectors on the NX8800GTX when I found this thread:
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=107516.0
In it, I noticed bosskiller recommends a PSU with a 30A on +12V.  I got the Antec Neo HE 550.  The sticker on the Antec, however, is less at: +3.3V 24A, +5V 20A, +12V1 18A, +12V2 18A, +12V3 18A
This is what I asked about the connectors on the VGA card:
Each of the PCI-E power connectors on the card is connected to the PSU with it's own connector/cord.  Help appreciated 
edit: I guess since I have 2 power connectors with it's own connection to the PSU, does that mean it's on 2 rails? for a total 36A?

Be careful and read page 5 of the manual and make sure you are pluging each PCIe lead into a seperate rail of the PSU or you may only get 18amps as opposed to 36amps. Manual states one lead in the one of the first two six pin connectors on the PSU and the other lead into one of the next three six pin connectors. That will insure you are using two seperate rails and have 36 amps available to the two PCIe cables.

    I purchased a iPad retina last week and thought I would get the iWork suite at no charge. Did I get it wrong?

    Have you tried visiting the App Store and tapping on the Purchased icon?  If the iWork components appear there with a "cloud-with-a-down-arrow" icon, means you have to download them (for free) onto your iGadget.

  • Did I buy the wrong HDTV?

    Hello,
    Did I buy the wrong HTDV for my Mac mini media center?
    My 2009 Mac mini is connected to a Panasonic 32" 720p HDTV via HDMI.
    (I'm using a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter)
    Several issues have arisen:
    1) black bars at the top and bottom of the screen when I watch Netflix "watch instantly" movies on it.
    2) The menubar of my Mac computer screen is not visible (image chopped off on all four sides).
    3) The Mac mini cannot connect to the Internet via Airport when it's attached to the HDTV! (ethernet connection is A-OK)
    I've tried playing around with the settings for both the Mac Mini (which recognizes the Panasonic) and the various menu options on the TV but no success.
    Maybe I should have broke down and bought a 1080p instead?
    Any help would be much-o appreciated!
    Mike

    I guess I am just concerned as there seems to be so many networks (routers) around here, there is always 7 or 8 connections available on the list of avail networks and I am just concerned about that one machine connecting to the wrong router when it is booted up ....
    when I was using the wrt54g, and it always showed "Excellent" and the others always showed poor to very poor (1 or 2 bars) ,,,,,,,
    but now with the new router always showing just one or two bars as well on that one machine .... I worry that it may connect to the wrong thing sometime. This wouldn't be such a worry for me IF there were simply an option to set "Connect to this network ONLY" on the nic,
    but there isn't, just a "Connect to preffered network IF in range" ..........
    Not that it matters here is the whole reason I have these machines and routers on a network is because I am severely disabled with M.S. and getting up and down steps to all my familys machines isn't so easy, and that one machine about 75 feet from me is impossible. So I have them all  networked thru the router, and I use a remote control program (called Radmin) to access the various machines from this one laptop.
    I am starting to wonder if the fact that nothing will work when this router is on 20mhz bandwith at all, is indicative of some sort of problem with the router itself? That is funny as the wrt54g was 20mhz only I beleive, and it worked perfectly!

  • My new 7th gen NANO cannot be connected on either my Windows 7 or VISTA PCs. I have updated to ensure I have the latest iTunes version. When connecting I did not get the setup screens but the NANO assumed the identity of an older IPod. I have reset

    I am having problems setting up a new 7th gen IPod NAN or both my Windows 7 and Windows Vista PCs. When first connecting I did not get the setup screens and cannot sync existing media. The NANO assumed the name of a previously installed IPod touch and resetting does not clear this name. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes.updating driver software and resetting the NANO without any success

    Ok There seems to be alot of confusion on hear about the Friday ( 07-08-11) Update that was sent out to fix the Reboot issue with the Phone. Some people like my self have reported that they can not get the Update as there phone is getting an inability to connect to the network error, or the update window simply disappears with out a response (This is what is happening to me).
    Many have reported that they got the update it fixed the reboot bug, and that they are seeing improvement in the phones functionality in general. Some people have reported that they have heard that the update is causing more problems. What I have yet to see (And I might have simply missed them) is reports from users that this has actually happened to them. So I started this Thread to see if we can't get a straight answer from the people that are actually using the phone (Because it seems VZW and HTC don't' seem to know or want to tell us right now) 
    So hear is what Im asking 
    1) Did you get the Update Yes, I requested it at 7:50pm, 7/8/11
    2) Did it Fix The Reboot Bug From The Last Update Yes
    3) How is the performance of the phone now  Much better, I no longer have data drops so I no longer need to turn on and off Airplane mode to get data back
    4) Has the latest update brought any new problems Zilch, none, nada, nope
    Hopefully this clears up any confusion and we can all get a clear idea of weather this update is a worth bothering with.

  • I do not have the ability to edit my .pdf once converted into a word document. Did I purchase the wrong version?

    When I covert my pdf into a word document it does not allow me to edit the actual text. I can add random text to the document, not following the format of the document (not aligned, not the same font, etc.). I can add text, but I cannot what is already in a sentence or paragraph.
    Did I purchase the wrong version?
    Thanks,
    Cindy.

    Hi cindyjay,
    You have the right tool for converting PDF files to Word. For starters, please try triple-clicking in the text block that you want to edit. If that doesn't work, we'll need to take a closer look at how the PDF that you converted was created (did it start out as a scanned document, for example). If it did start as a scanned document, it's important that OCR (optical character recognition) was performed during conversion to convert scanned text to editable text. OCR is on by default when you convert via the ExportPDF website, but can be turned off if you convert via Reader.
    If triple-clicking doesn't work, let me know, and then we'll take a closer look at your file.
    Best,
    Sara

  • I installed Lion, but did not get the multi touch gestures feature. Also my "front row" is gone.

    I installed Lion, but did not get the multi touch gestures feature. Also my "front row" is gone.

    What model computer do you have? some early trackpads will not support all gestures.
    Front Row was dropped by Apple in Lion. I beleive it can be recovered from Snow Leopard, I haven't tried it myself.

    You created your user ID today.
    You asked "a question" today and received a response from user Chris CA.
    Twenty minutes later, you created this post, which does not ask any question. It makes a statement, that is inaccurate!
    So - you asked once. You did get a reply. If that reply did not answer your vague question, ask the poster to explain. It might help if you provided more information about why you are asking.

  • When I changed computers, my IPAD did not get the apps that I had downloaded or purchased. It did get my calendar,music and related items.

    When I changed computers, my IPADII did not get the apps I had purchased when synching. It did get themusic, calendar and related items. I tired Restore, but that did not work. what do you suggest?

    I would try first in iTunes right clicking on your iPad and selecting "Transfer Purchases from iPad". This will add any new downloads from your iPad to your computer. Then click on the iPad and at the top choose Apps and make sure you have "Sync Apps" checked. I hope that helps.
