    Question ASUS RVIE ENCORE 6 pin power connector?

    Noticed ASUS Rampage Vi Extreme Encore had a 6 pin power connector as well as 2x 8 pin connectors. Heard of a 6 pin gpu connector to connect to the gpu but not a 6 pin connector to connect to the motherboard. My question is would I need to connect a 6 pin as well as the 2x 8 pin cables?

    I have the 6pin and both 8 pin plugged in and it works fine. VGA lead fits the 6 pin.

    Has anybody used the T-Sensors on this board ?? I connected the DIMM2_1 temps lead to one and my M.2 showed 180c. The T-Sensor next to the 24pin ATX is redundant when you use the heat spreader. Do you need to use the add on fan card temp sensors for the DIMM2 temps to show in Ai Suite??

    I don't think so, i think this is the first board with 2x8 pin and 1x 6 pin connections on it.

    I have both 8-pin and the 6-pin connected as well but don't really need the 6-pin connected. I have never used the thermal sensors so can't be of help there. It was kind of confusing though when you read about which DIMM.2 is disabled and when running in X16 X16 X8 mode or X16 X8 X4 mode whichever but after doing some searching in the bios you have to set that mode and it doesn't matter if the PCIe slots are being used or not in the board.

    There are some old boards with a 6pin but in old ones is to feed the pciexpress slots when using multiple graphics cards.

    Yeah i just meant as far as 2x8 and 1x6 as the main 12V connections, there has been several with 1x8 with 1x6 or 1x8 with 1x4 and then the extra connection for extra vga's but this one has 2x8, 1x6, and 1x 4 pin molex for extra video cards so its for sure got plenty of power connections on it.
