In a new video, Tom from Moore's Law is Dead explains that his sources have said that NVIDIA will be shifting towards their next-gen GPUs using a next-gen PCIe 6.0 16-pin connector.

I'm putting together a new system with a PCI-Express X800 XT. This card has a 6-pin power connector. I have a 6-pin connector from my power supply, but I'm not sure if the pinout is correct. Does ...

Graphics Card High-Power (GC-HPWR), a finger connector that ASUS introduced as part of its BTF (Back-to-The-Future) ecosystem to power GPUs without the need for traditional cabling (e.g., 6/8-pin ...

Asus' new GeForce GTX 950 requires no 6-pin PCIe power connector By Tim Schiesser March 7, 2016, 19:45 25 comments. Serving tech enthusiasts for over 25 years.

A 8-pin PCIe power connector is supposed to be limited to 150W per the PCIe spec. This means that with two 8-pins hanging off a single 6-pin, you're putting 100W, or 8.33A, through each pin of the ...

Keep in mind that the 6-pin power cable delivers 75 watts and the 8-pin power cable delivers 150 watts. Therefore, verify your GPU’s requirements and choose the appropriate cable accordingly.

For the most part, computer components are safe to mix and match as long as they're designed to fit where you're trying to use them. A ...

SilverStone has launched the Extreme 1000Rz Platinum power supply, designed for small form factor (SFF) PC builds following ...

It's been a while since we needed a new graphics card power connector. Both AMD and Nvidia have typically made do with pairs of 6-pin and 8-pin connectors in various configurations.

In the case of the 6-pin and 8-pin PCIe power connector, these are based on the Molex Mini-Fit series, with the commonly used Mini-Fit Plus HCS (high current system) rated for 100 mating cycles in ...

To provide this extra power, graphics cards typically include one or more supplementary PCIe power connectors: A 6-pin PCIe connector can supply up to an additional 75W. An 8-pin PCIe connector ...

When PCI-SIG introduced the 12VHPWR power connector as a replacement for the 6- and 8-pin PCIe power connectors, it created a wave of controversy. There were enough cases of melting GPUs, PSUs, and… ...
