Would the be quiet! Straight Power 12 1000W ATX 3.0 be compatible with AMD RX 9070?
I think the 9070 uses a 2 x 8-pin power connector but the PSU only has 1 x 8-pin ?
850W PSU would be fine needless to ask.

Edit:
are 6+2-pin connectors what's to be understood as 8-pin connectors?

Update:
I'm not interested to the RX 9070 Sapphire Pure over the Nitro+ because nitro uses 1x 12V-2x6 adapter but the pure uses 2x 8-Pin.
I believe from looking at the GPU and PSU that there should not be any problems.
Just to be sure i want to ask if people in this forum can confirm that?
 
Thanks, do newer psus basically always come with 12VHPWR?

Are atx 3.0 and 3.1 psus both compatible with the radeon rx 9070?
 
Most good ones over 750W will have one, yes.


Yes. ATX 3.1 comes with the newer 12V-2X6 standard, if you're interested. It's just an attempt to fix the faulty 12VHPWR design.
Thanks for explaining, so that means theres no need to worry about 12V-2X6?
