Does anyone make a TFX PSU with 8+6 pin pcie?

[HeXen]

A custom SFF build for a friend. I'm fitting in a unique shape where an SFX is just about 1 inch too long but I think I can work with a TFX. I've seen 500 watt TFX psu's but none have a dual pcie connector for GPU's.

If not, does anyone make a 450 + watt external brick similar to this?:

Or how about an SFX that's 3.92 long instead of the standard 4.92??

I couldn't find any TFX with more than 1x 8 pin (6+2pin) from a quick search

what kind of GPU are you putting into a SFF PC that uses more than 225W?
the stock 970/980 uses 2x6 pin, fury nano uses 1x 8pin, polaris 10 probably uses 1x6, 1070 and 1080 uses 1x8 pin.
I guess it's one of the 980 TI? Although, most of them use 2x8 pin.

In TFX you're probably stuck with something that uses 1x 8-pin OR 2x6-pin (150w + 75 through motherboard)

newegg has a few SFX that are 3.94" /100mm in length with 1x6pin + 1x8pin, or more

the one's that are shorter in appearance in that list
4.92" = width; standard length = 5.12" ~squarish top profile; short length = 3.94" rectangular top profile

At the moment it's only a 660 card but he wants a GTX 1080 like I do and the build is sufficient for the size...everything but the PSU due to position but aftermarket cards might draw quite a bit of juice .....I did consider the Alienware Andromeda parts which is for the X51. It consists of a power board, external 330 watt brick and DC jack. That would free up quite a bit of space but I worry the 330 watt might not be sufficient to run an i7 cpu..etc plus a 1080 card.

I did find this flex ATX 500 watt: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817338120&ignorebbr=1

Withe the plug and wires at the long ends and being much narrower than SFX, I think I could make that work but one of the reviews mention coil whine under GPU load which worries me

Those are still 4.92 inches long. It's that long side that has no plug or wire that's hurting me by a lousy inch because of how it mounts. I actually have an SFX psu right here but those bare sides won't do. Even if it was an inch thicker I'd be fine.
where the specs say 4.92" X 3.94" X 2.50". I probably need 3.92" x 3.94" x 2.50".
Actually, if the wire/plug end was longer and the sides just narrower, it'd be fine. So now I have to decide if that Flex ATX psu is going to be capable. I'm sure that fan is noisy as all hell.

a review of the 400W version of the athena power

apparently the 500W variant may have issues outputting the rated power.

Thanks, I may opt for that 400 w version or test the luck with Alienware's Andromeda board and pray 330 watts would be enough power. There are tons of people claiming to use 970 cards in the x51 R2 but skeptical if it could handle a 1080 if needed.
