Do you have a 12VHPWR (PSU) to 3 x 8-pin PCIE (GPU) cable?

Yes, we do. Please buy it at ATX 3.0 PCIe 5.0 Dual 12VHPWR 16 Pin to Triple 8 Pin PCIE Power Cable.

But please note that your PSU must provide 2 x 12VHPWR ports (e.g. Thermaltake Toughpower GF3 1650W), in order to use this cable.

Each 8pin PCIE requires 3 x 12V leads. 3 x 8pin PCIE requires 9 x 12V leads, but one 12VHPWR port can only provide 6 x 12V leads. This is why you need dual 12VPHWR ports from the PSU if you want to split out 3 x 8pin PCIE.

For a single 12VHPWR port from PSU, you can only split out 2 x 8pin PCIE, and you can buy such cable at ATX 3.0 PCIe 5.0 600W 12VHPWR 16 Pin to Dual 8 Pin PCIE Power Cable.

You can also use a 12VHPWR to 2x8pin PCIE cable and a regular 8pin to 8pin PCIE cable together, to power your GPU if there is not enough 8pin ports on your PSU.
