I'm thinking about upgrading from my 3070 FE to a PALIT Gaming Pro 5070 Ti. I have a Corsair RM750x (2021) 750 W power supply. Is my PSU sufficient for the 5070 Ti, and will I need any additional cables to power it? Thanks!

Yes, most new GPUs include a conversion cable that changes standard PCI-E power cables to a 16-pin connector. Your 750W PSU should handle it just fine, too.
The 5070 Ti requires two 8-pin connectors. My RM850 came with these connectors, so I assume yours should too. Just make sure to use separate cables for each 8-pin if you can; it's generally recommended not to load two 8 pins on the same cable.
Good to know! So, I can use separate cables for better power distribution?
Awesome, thanks! So it will adapt from the 2 PCI-E connectors my PSU has to what the GPU requires?
