Just use one 8pin while testing then bro. I don't think the i5's need two no matter what speed you oc them to. They are rated at something like 65w tdp.

I say if the second one is there, it's there for a reason and should be used - dammit lol

I still need to setup my P55 Classy but I have a "spare" TT 1200 toughpower so I'll be using both 8 pins anyway

Good luck bro

some mobos like the 657/658/659s they're rated at 600w ...some eps connectors an do 50A but some don't thats why the mobos i mentioned have 2 eps connectors and an auxillary 12v molex on the mobo.... depending on the cpu... an i5 won't draw 40A...but an i7-860 can be pushed hard ...860? its obsolete
