2080 power confusion

[pwninsarge]

I've seen people say the founders edition 2080 has two 8 pin connectors or one 8 pin and one 6 pin. Even on the nvidia website they have pictures with both power layouts. Which one is it??

Not sure where people are saying FE 2080 as two 8-pins.. but even if they do have the pictures, the spec sheet on the Nvidia site states 8+6 pin.

Maybe the reference card had 2 8 pins? I don't know, but their spec sheet states 8+6 and you should probably trust that.

yeah I saw that. I pre ordered the 2080 FE and for that it says 8+6 on the sheet, but they also show pictures of the FE with 8+8 and 8+6

Yeah, I'd go with the spec sheet too. Top of 2080 product page on nvidia's website shows 8+8, but 8+6 pics are lower down in the product page in the gallery. Also noticed on nvidia.com home page at the bottom under "products" there's a link for "GeForce GTX 20-Series." Damn, nvidia, where's the consistency?

Alright sounds good, thank you guys!

AFAIK (ie from Nvidia's site) both the FE and reference 2080TI use 8+8.
The 2080 FE uses 8+6, the reference design is unspecified (so board partners could use 8+8, most likely)
The FE 2070 uses a single 8pin. The boards partners could probably use 8+6 on this.

Both? Manufacturers can put different connectors if they want. Some 1080s have 2x 8-pins.
