Thread: Sapphire hd 4730 512mb gddr5 pci-e

I want to buy a Sapphire HD 4730 512MB GDDR5 PCI-E, but was confused that this card, two power connectors!

Even the more advanced Sapphire HD4850 512Mb PCI-E GDDR-3, one slot. Why so? Because GDDR-5? Do I have two slots?

Does such a system to cope with this
CPU DualCore AMD Athlon 64 X2, 3000 MHz (15 x 200) 6000 +
Math. board MSI K9VGM (MS-7253) IA K8M890CE, AMD Hammer
SAMSUNG RAM 2048 MB (DDR2-800 DDR2 SDRAM)
HDD MAXTOR STM3250310AS (232 GB, IDE)
HDD WDC WD2500JS-60NCB1 (232 GB, IDE)
Drive HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-H44N
Corps SuperCase TC4585 Black-Silver, 400W, ATX

Despite the code 4730, video card is built on the core of RV770, so its performance and power consumption compared with more graphics cards with higher indices.
In addition two power connectors are likely to remain only as a legacy from the reference design boards series HD4800, and without overclocking a video card fully works from one socket.

Without knowing what kind of «super-building», you can not say anything specific.

Thank you for your explanation!
But with the details of this place!
"In any case, it is necessary to connect power adapters, if not the desired number of 6-pin connectors: for every two adapters from different branches."
I understand:
It turns out that for every stuck need two different branches? That two slots should be four branches of the BOC?

In fact, both (highly desirable). Although at each branch will have a disc or drive is connected, but it is desirable to connect both. Nothing it is not. so have low load capacity, and the use of adapters lowers it further. Well, if BP is building at least one end with 6-pin connector for the graphics card, it will be easier.

With respect to the body: I still like him to call if he SuperCase? After all, I am sure that this is not a very high quality sample of the most famous in the world.
