Hey everyone! I'm not super experienced with PC building and I have a question about GPU connections. I recently bought a second-hand PC that came with an RTX 5070 Ti but sold that since I want to get an AMD GPU for playing Warzone. The power supply in the PC is a Segotep Am850w modular PSU, which has a 12VHPWR 600W connector that matches with the GPU. My concern is that the seller might not send the additional cables for the PSU. So, I'm wondering if I can use the 12VHPWR cable I currently have to connect to an AMD card. Is there an adapter out there to convert the 12VHPWR to dual 6+2 PCIe connectors? Also, do you think the Radeon 9070 XT Nitro would work with the cable I have? Thanks a lot!

The Sapphire Nitro+ does indeed support the 12VHP connector, but if it doesn't suit your needs, check with the manufacturer of your power supply. They might sell replacement cables for your specific model that will be compatible with whatever GPU you choose. These new cables can be a bit of a hassle, so it’s good to have options!
Yes, the Sapphire Nitro+ and Asrock Taichi 9070 XT both have the 12VHPWR connector, so they will work with what you have! Just make sure you're looking at those specific models as they're the only ones from the 9070 XT lineup compatible with that connection.

Thank you!
Thought it would only work for the 50 series GPUs; these cables are killing me, thanks!
