I recently purchased an Asus RX 9070XT Prime OC graphics card, but I didn't realize it needs three 8-pin PCIe connectors. I have a Corsair RM750x (2018) power supply that only has two 8-pin connectors. I'm wondering if it's a bad idea to use a daisy chain to connect the graphics card or if I should just invest in a new PSU. I've already spent a lot on this build, so I'd prefer not to have to buy more equipment unless it's essential for safety.

Using the daisy chain on that PSU is fine! Just make sure you're not pushing your card too hard, especially with overclocking. Corsair makes solid products, so unless you’re aiming for extreme performance, you should be good with this setup.
Got it! So if I'm not overclocking, I should be fine then?
