Question Server GPU connector

[daspal]

I am planning to buy a server (gigabyte R282-z93). This motherboard has
2x4pin P12V GPU power connectors (3 of them onboard).

I plan to use a single RTX 8000 which has a 8pin and a 6pin connector.
So the 6 pin connector on GPU has to go into a 2x4pin 12V connector. How can I do this?

Incorrect info was here :-D

The GPU should get power cables from the PSU.
The motherboard connectors are INLETS for the PSU to be connected, NOT OUTLETS.

You are confusing it with a desktop. It is a dual socket server with 1+1 redundancy. those are outlets.

I stand corrected, did not notice its a server.
Manual page 48, connectors 4,5,16 - new server should come with periphery adapters but I can’t find full item list for the package... otherwise you will have to buy them. These ones are for Dell.

But why should I use a 2x6 pin to 8pin adapter.
I can use a 6pin to 8pin adapter, so the 8pin will go into the 2x4pin onboard and the 6pin to the gpu.
The board only has 2x4 pin connectors.

Gigabyte documentation is really bad
