would i need to buy a cable for the psu or a 8 pin to 2x6+2 pin cables

 

I could have sworn the CX750M came with two cables that had 2x6+2

I currently have a Corsair CX750M 750W power supply and i'm wondering if that would support a 2080 super (2x 8pin connectors) as my current gpu has a 8pin and 6pin connector

 

so the main question is would i need to -

buy a cable for the current psu

buy a bigger psu that has 2 8pin connectors

or just any problems i may face when it comes to install time

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

it might have, im unsure where the spare cables are though, i was looking at getting a psu for my sister's computer as it will get my old parts so would it be worth me spending the extra $40 on a RM850 Gold?

850 watts is so much, just get an RM550X.
