RTX 2070 Super

[HokageUddin]

So I ordered a RTX 2070S MSI OC or whatever recently and it requires a 6pin + 8pin connection, my PSU does have two cords (each are separate and plug into separate things in the PSU) as it is modular and I was wondering, to power the GPU do I use both cords and plug the 6 pin and 8pin in from two different cords, or will it fry the GPU or something??

To power the video card you need two 6+2 pin power connectors. One of which you will use all pins of, the other you will leave 2 pins hanging.

 

It's not exactly clear to me what you're asking with the two different cords thing, but you basically just use the cables that comes with your PSU to power it.

 

EDIT: what PSU do you have?

Consult the manual on both products. If you still can't figure it out, then come back here. Nobody on this forum has the information you have.

So what I meant was the PSU came with two 6+2 pins, do I use both when powering the GPU , with one of them not using the 2 pin, I am using the Seasonic fully modular 750 watt powersupply 80+ bronze

Yes

So I use both cords right? It won't fry anything or mess up anything?

Yes, you have to use both if the GPU has 2 connectors, otherwise it won't work.
