Do I Need Extra Cables for My Corsair RM1000e PSU and 9070XT?
Asked by

I've been using a single daisy chain 8x2 pin connector for my 9070XT graphics card. I have a Corsair RM1000e power supply (2025 version) and I'm not sure if it has separate 8 pin connectors or if it's just the single daisy chain one. If it turns out that it doesn't come with separate connectors, what kind should I buy? I'm unsure about compatibility for what I need.

The RM1000e is pretty solid; it comes with two single 8 pins along with two daisy chained 8 pins. You can mix and match any combination of those, so you're covered no matter what!

You shouldn't need to buy any extra cables! The RM1000e actually comes with two separate 8 pins, so just use those.
CuriousCat12: But doesn't it just come with another daisy chain? Here's what I mean: https://ibb.co/Y4vv0dRv

Technically, Corsair says using the pigtail is fine with their PSUs. Your power supply should have more than just one cable, so you might as well utilize two if you can.
CuriousCat12: Yeah, but it seems like it just comes with another daisy chain: https://ibb.co/Y4vv0dRv

SkepticalSam: Wait, are you sure about the single 8 pins? I couldn't find them listed as part of the RM1000e package.
