This specific card has 3x8pin connectors
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes. You will need 3 available PCIe power cables, unless you have a Corsair PSU. They have a model the allows you to use the pig tail from one of them for the 3rd plug because it is a higher gauge cable.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes it needs 3
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, 8 pins support 150 watts each, my card can spike to 380 watts pretty comfortably. That surpasses the 2 cables (150x2=300) and the 75 watts that the PCIe slot could provide. Just thankful it uses 3 standard 8 pins instead of the 4080/4090 12vhpwr connector.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This model requires 1 Pcie slot but will cover 2.5. It also requires 3 8pin power connectors with a recommended minimum psu of 800 watts.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes it does
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes it does. However if you have a 1000w power supply which is the minimum i would recommend with this card then it wont be a issue as it will come with 3 cables. I loge this card especially with the dual bios mode.
