Hello, this is my first ever post in Tom's Forum.
On the basis of a build I made on PC Part Picker https://pcpartpicker.com/list/4XT6Hz, with "No issues or incompatibilities found." I had assumed that upgrading my graphics card to the EVGA RTX 3090 FTW3 Ultra would be safe and possible. As I took the card out of the box, I noticed there were 3 8 pin PCIE slots on the card and I only had 2 8 pin PCIE cords coming from my Corsair RMX 750 PSU. Not wanting to screw anything up, I took the card out of my rig and put it back in the box it came in in the mail. Just in case I may have to return it. But is it possible to use 2 8 pin PCIE cords with 3 8 pin ports? If not, is there a cable I can buy? Based on my searches, I can't find a cable like this on Amazon, Newegg, or anywhere else. Is there a PSU I could get to make this work?
