1) Does anyone know of a high quality 1000w power supply around $220USD for mainly gaming and overclocking? Will be running 12900K and RTX 3070 ti.


2) Been looking at the Seasonic Focus GX 1000 not sure if good or not, but does this psu have 3 seperate 8pin cables? My graphics card needs 3x8pin power without daisy chaining.
 
Why a 1000w? I’m running a 3080 and 3700x on a top quality 650w without any issues. Ok you have a much higher wattage cpu requirement but a good 850w would be more than enough.

According to the Seasonic spec page that psu has 3 pcie cables. https://seasonic.com/focus-gx#

Because 1000w is good for me. But what does it mean it says 8/6pin cables? Does this power supply have 3 seperate pcie of 8pin cables?

My graphic cards need 3x8pin power. And need 3 seperate cables running to it.

It is just saying they are the normal 6+2 pin connectors that can be used as 6 or 8 pin. It states the number of cables is 3 and each cable has 2 of the 6+2 connectors.
