“If Nvidia 4070 GPU in this PC is rated at 200 watts maximum, why does it use an 8 pin PCIe connection that can only provide 150 watts?”

1-1 of 1 Answer

• 75 watts are also provided from the PCIe port as well. 150 watts are the safety standards for the cable. They can run more wattage if necessary just at the risk of crashing your computer.
