Question about daisy chain power gpu

[AskingThings]

hi guys,

so i just heard about this daisy chain thing from psu to gpu, and to my surprise i'm using single cable pcie to power up both connector 12hvpwr extention that come with my gpu package for gpu is not recomended, i did not know that because to this day my pc just run fine and still draw 270-ish watt when i look at riva tuner.

should i worry for the long run? or should i just pick 2 pcie and separate them to power up my gpu?

oh i'm using galax 4070ti (using 12hvpwr cable extention with 2 slot pcie each on the end, and i'm using single cable because that single cable has dual connector at the end) and fractal ion+ platinum 760W

cheers

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

According to your PSU's manual;
https://www.fractal-design.com/app/uploads/2019/06/IonP-manual.pdf
page 9, you should have access to 3xPCIe harnesses, off of which you get 2x6+2pin PCIe connectors, so you have the ability to hook up each RT4070Ti's adapters ends with a single PCIe connector.
