I just bought a 5070 TI and I'm a bit confused about how to connect it to my power supply. I have an RM850x power supply that's currently using a 6+2 PCIe connection for my old 4060 TI. The 5070 TI comes with a three-way adapter for an eight pin connector. What do I need to do to hook up my power supply to this new graphics card? Any guidance would be really appreciated, thanks!

The RM850x should have come with at least two PCIe power cables, each with two connectors. You’ll want to use two connectors from one of those cables and then one from the other cable to connect to the 5070 TI. It’s pretty straightforward if you have those cables! Just make sure they fit snugly into the graphics card.
One of my connectors goes to an ICUE 360 Corsair hub, and it's also connected to the graphics card. I lost the box with the extra cables, so I might just need to grab some new ones. Do you think the Corsair hub will cause any issues?
