Which Cable Should I Use for My GPU: PSU's or the One That Came With It?
Asked by

Hey everyone, I'm new to building PCs and I need some help. I just got a 5070ti Gaming OC, and it came with a cable that splits into three. My power supply, a Super Flower LEADEX III GOLD UP 1000W ATX3.1, has three VGA cables. I assume I can use one of these to connect my GPU? I also have a cable that says 600W that came with the PSU, and it looks like it's meant for the GPU. Can someone tell me which one I should use? Does it matter which end of the 600W cable goes into the PSU since they don't seem to click in like the others? Thanks a lot!

You should definitely use the cable that came with your PSU for your GPU. It's specifically designed for that. Just make sure to plug the cable into the appropriate slots on both the PSU and the GPU.

GamerGal42: Thanks, TechieTom! Does it matter which side of the 12x2.6 cable goes into the PSU or GPU since I noticed they don’t click in?
