pcie 5.0 connector question

Go to solution Solved by Poinkachu,

If I look at your other posts & assume what your real question is:

 

You want to buy new PSU, and your GPU needs 3x PCIE 8pins.

And you're asking if the item you linked is the right adapter for your GPU.

 

If your GPU is still the same (7900 xtx), you don't need that "adapter".

That "adapter" is for some NVIDIA's RTX4000 series.

I quoted it because what you linked is not an adapter, it's a modular 12VHPWR cable.

 

No idea which Be Quiet PSU you plan to buy, but at 1000w, usually PSU will have at least 2 separate PCIe cables, each with daisy-chained PCIE 8pin connectors.

So a total of atleast 4 PCIE 8pins connector.

 

You can check Be Quiet website for the PSU model you plan to buy, and see what cables & connectors they ship with.

Im buying a new psu and it takes 3x pcie 8pins my, but im unusre ehich adapter to buy. Im also scared of purcasing the wrong one, because a this adapter is literally 1/3of my monthly allowance

 

This is what ive been planning to purcase https://www.pcx.hu/be-quiet-kabel-12vhpwr-pci-e-adapter-cable-cph-6610-12pin-tap-1-csatlakozo-erenkent-harisnyazott-60-cm-fekete-bc072-575820?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAg9urBhB_EiwAgw88mdVyIe55HmeTIpVF7Dc8NbJqY3Cn9eITLNVt52Y8TQZqiYW8tNvaYBoCpzMQAvD_BwE

So do I understand this correctly, you have 3 PCIe 8-pin connectors and you need what connector? Or do you need 3 PCIe connectors and you have what connector?

I'm sorry if I sound like an idiot but I really have a hard time understanding what you mean.

English is not my first language, so please excuse any confusion or misunderstandings on my end, also I like to edit my posts a lot.

Please rework your question so that we can understand it better, and therefore help you better.

Also, Which Be Quiet power supply, you mentioned "Pure" , is it Pure Power series? is it Pure Power 11 ? Pure Power 12 ?

Pure Power 11 IIRC is not modular, so that cable gonna be useless for you.
Pure Power 12 is modular and already ships with 12VHPWR cable.

I believe the BeQuiet! PSU should have come with a 12VHPWR cable already?

Found this thing, that is the same as in that hungarian link they sent.

https://www.bequiet.com/de/accessories/3959

But it has nothing to do with PCIe 8 pin connectors.

Im going to buy the Be quiet 1000w pure psu that the Pure Power 12 one.

 

My rx 7900 xtx takes 3x 8pin pcie connectors.

 

The psu comes with the pcie 5.0 connector and Im unsure if I can connect my gpu to the psu my default?

 

Thats why Im asking whether I need an adapter for pcie 5.0 -> 3x pcie 8pin connectors

 

But Poinkachu answered my question.

 

Also when im daisy chaining will it still be able to deliver 600w? Cuz i have heard that daisy chaining put more stress on the cables

While that is true, the cables are rated for 600W, so daisy chaining won't cause any issue.

That PSU comes with 12VHPWR cable, as well as standard PCIE 8pins cables.

 

Most likely than not you will be fine using daisy chain. The bad after effect of the problem you mentioned usually occurs when the PSU uses smaller awg cables.

Plus, I doubt your GPU will ever pull 600w.
