Does anyone know of a 12VHPWR to PCIe 8 pin connector?
Posted by fallingdowndizzyvr@reddit | buildapc | View on Reddit | 9 comments
I have a PSU that has that new 12VHPWR GPU connector. But I have GPUs that need good old fashion PCIe 8 pin connectors. While it's common to have adapters that take 2-4 PCIe 8 pin connectors and adapt that to a single 12VHPWR connector. Is there an adapter that does the reverse and adapt a 12VHPWR connector to 2-4 PCIe 8 pin connectors?

I’m using a cablemod 12vhpwr connected to my thermaltake psu to a 3 8-pin cable connected to my evga 3090 and it works.

Sweet. Thanks.

What PSU make/model are you rocking? Happy to point you in the right direction, and answer any questions you may have. :)

Thanks. But it shouldn't matter should it? Since 12VHPWR is a standard. I'm looking for a cable to break out the 12VHPWR port on my PSU to PCIe 8 pin plugs.

Very welcome! It does on the non-standardized 12VHPWR cables though, yes. Native 12VHPWR cables appear to all be the same pinouts (at least on the ones we've tested). However, the 12VHPWR to 2x8, 3x8 or 4x8 variants do have pinouts that still need to be followed respective to the PSUs.

Got it. I have a Coolermaster MWE Gold 1250. Do you make a cable that breaks out the 12VHPWR port on the PSU to PCIe 8 pins plugs?

Unfortunately, we haven't confirmed compatibility on that specific model. You could grab our extensions if you would like one of those, but it wouldn't be a replacement cable, something to keep in mind. You could also recommend to our support team that we add compatibility for this PSU as well if you would like. :)
