Hey everyone! I just got my hands on an ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 5080 16GB OC graphics card, and I'm trying to figure out the power supply situation. I currently have a Corsair RM850 (850W) from 2019, but it seems like I'm missing the correct output for the new power cable I need. I stumbled upon the Corsair Type 4 90° 12V-2x6 Style A cable rated for 600W, but I'm a bit confused about whether it would be suitable for my setup according to Corsair's compatibility chart. Can someone break this down for me?

Does your GPU come with any adapters? That's often the way to go if you're not sure about the connections.
Yeah, it does include a 3x8 adapter, but my PSU only has 3 of the 8 PIN TO 2X 6+2 cables. I’m unsure if I can use those since I’ve read that the adapter requires three individual 8-pin cables.
