[SOLVED] No extra 8 pin power cable for GPU

[miskoprotis]

Hello,

Finally my first post.
Today I have bought ASUS ROG Strix Radeon RX 580 T8G Gaming Top OC Edition and it appears my PSU do not have extra 8 pin power cable.

I have only 5 spare cables from PSU:
2x 4 pin peripheral power cable
2x Serial ATA
1x 4-pin (FDD) (I believe)

PC:
PSU// PSU Tacens Mars Gaming MPII550 550W, 120mm, 14dB, 85+
MOBO // GA-AB350M-DS3H
APU // Ryzen 2200G
RAM // ADATA XPG Gammix D10 DDR4 16GB(2x8GB) 3200MHz, CL16, Black Heatsink Edition
M.2 SSD // KINGSTON | A1000 | 240GB | M.2
+ Patriot standart SSD

Any possibilities to fix it?

No, you need a PSU with the correct connections.

Not having the right connectors is a sign it is not up to the job. It’s 550w sticker is also a lie. By its own spec it says 34A (408W) on the 12v tail, a high quality 450W can do better than that. It’s time for a PSU upgrade.
