PCIe 5.0 work for 7900xtx?

[Fankywanky]

Is there a way I can use a PCIe 5.0 power supply for a Asus tuf 7900xtx?

Should work. Why not? You don't need 5.0, but that powers 7900XTX anyway.

What PSU though? I mean model.

This should be perfectly fine for any 7900XTX

Would I need a adapter?

No

AMD uses standard PCIE instead of 12VHPWR.

But even if it uses 12VHPWR, the PSU comes with it anyway.

No, the 7900 XTX needs PCI-e power connectors, not even 16-pin 12VHPWR connector. And the MSI PSU has 6 of the PCI-e power connectors.

I have 2 8 pin connectors powering my cpu so that leaves 2 8 pins left and the gpu takes 3.
