COMeap 373901 6 Pin to 8 Pin CPU Adapter

This COMeap 373901 adapter converts a power supply 6 pin PCIe output into an EPS-12V 8 pin (4+4 detachable) or P4 ATX 4 pin motherboard input. It targets builders using dual, quad or server boards that require an EPS-12V connection but only have a 6 pin source available. The cable is not designed for graphics cards and will be damaged if used that way.

Installation notes and common issues

The 13 inch (33 cm) braided 18 AWG cable includes self-adhesive tape for securing the run inside the chassis. The detachable 4+4 male end slides apart so it can fit either an 8 pin EPS socket or a 4 pin ATX socket without forcing the connector. A frequent mistake is plugging the adapter into a GPU power socket instead of the motherboard CPU socket, which the supplier warns will burn the cable.

Practical limits of the EPS-12V interface

The adapter relies on the power supply 6 pin port to deliver the current the motherboard EPS-12V or ATX 4 pin socket expects. If the PSU 6 pin rail cannot supply enough amperage for a multi-CPU server board, the system will not start or will become unstable. The 18 AWG conductors and 13 inch length set a fixed voltage-drop budget that cannot be extended by daisy-chaining. The cable serves only motherboard CPU power and cannot replace a native 8 pin EPS cable from the PSU.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the COMeap 373901 adapter is delivering stable power to my motherboard after installation?

The system should POST normally and show no CPU power warnings in BIOS or the OS; the 18AWG conductors and braided shielding are rated for EPS-12V loads on dual, quad or server boards.

What comes with the COMeap 373901 adapter and is anything else required?

The package includes one 13-inch (33 cm) 6-pin female to 8-pin (4+4 detachable) male cable and one self-adhesive tape; no extra parts are needed if your PSU has a 6-pin output and the motherboard uses an 8-pin or 4-pin EPS socket.

Which version of the COMeap 373901 should I choose for an 8-pin EPS motherboard versus a 4-pin ATX motherboard?

The single 373901 model covers both: the 8-pin (4+4) male end splits so you can use the full 8-pin EPS-12V connector or slide off the 4-pin section for a P4 ATX 4-pin socket.
