Question How to connect the PSU to the GPU correctly ?

[Elliah246]

There is two PCIe slot and one PCIe 5.0, which one is where i connect the GPU?
The GPU is the Sapphire Pure Radeon RX 9070

You use the same connection as GPU has. AFAIK Pure has PCIe slots so you use PCIe cables and slots on PSU.

If this is the GPU you're working with, your GPU merely needs 2x 8pin PCIe connections. The 12V-2x6/12VHPWR harness has no use here. I double checked, regardless of the non-XT or XT variant, the connectors are the same, 2x 8pin PCIe input.

Yes this is the GPU.
I just dont know if i have to use the slot where it says pcie 5.0 or the other one

You need to use cable with 12pin connector on PSU side and
2x 6+2pin connectors on GPU side.

In the photo - two cables in upper right corner. You need only one of those cables for your card.

The second cable looks like a 8pin. The one you mentioned 6+2=8.
The 6+2 is considered an 8pin cable connector?
This will not fit into the PCIe 5.0 slot right? so i just connect to the normal PCIe slot?

Connector PCIE 6+2pin can be used as PCIE 6pin (if you don't use 2pin part) or
it can be used as PCIE 8pin (by combining 6pin and 2pin parts).

This will not fit into the PCIe 5.0 slot right? so i just connect to the normal PCIe slot?

Only cable with 600W written on it fits into PCIE 5.0 socket (cable in lower right corner in post #5).
