Well after a lot messing around with the same problem I have concluded that this is card is incompatible with an HP Z600 workstation. The Sata power cables on this workstation only have 4 wires, not 5. It would have been great if this was explicitly stated in the requirements for the card before you purchase it. Unfortunately I am going to have to return it as I have no other way to get 3.3v connection to the card. I am totally confused as to why they would use a connection that is not used by anything other than fans to power the card, I mean this would have saved me and others a lot of time, effort (and money) if they just used the 5.5v and dropped the voltage on the card to the required voltage. Not entirely impressed with EVGA over this, first bit of hardware I have ever bought from them.
