Hi, I’m looking to get a 3080 when they are released. I’ve been reading a lot that 2080tis should use two separate cables coming from the psu instead of the single daisy chain cable. I have also heard the 3000 series could have a high TDP.
I have an old gen AX850 psu which has two 12 pin pcie cables but overall it’s 4 cables, so 6 pins each cable.
does anyone know what kind of power this provides ? Compared to two separate cables coming from 8 pin connections.
