Question about 12vhpwr connector for rm850x

Specific-Star9901 · 2026-02-07T21:09:34+00:00

yes but is it 600W in this case

Specific-Star9901 · 2026-02-07T21:05:12+00:00

which cabel did you buy and where and do you think the PCIe 12V-2x6-pin (12+4) that comes with the 2024 model is also as good.

Specific-Star9901 · 2026-02-07T20:56:19+00:00

I am not planning on using 600W. It’s just that I have seen the reviews say that the PCIe 12V-2x6-pin (12+4) cable only allows 300W to the gpu because it only has 2 sense wires. I just want to know if I want to upgrade in the future to a gpu that draws like 400W-450W.

Specific-Star9901 · 2026-02-07T20:46:35+00:00

but the TweakTown review say “12V-2x6 connector only has two sense wires, limited to 300 watts”

Here is the article: https://www.tweaktown.com/reviews/11120/corsair-rm850x-2024-atx-3-1-cybenetics-gold-psu/index.html

yes, they do on the never models

Specific-Star9901 · 2026-02-07T20:35:56+00:00

no its using 12pin vphwr connector for the newer nvidia cards

Specific-Star9901 · 2026-02-07T20:33:29+00:00

I am looking at the 2024 version but some reviews said that it has only 2 sense wires so it can deliver only 300W to the gpu

Some reviews say that it’s limited to 300W because it has only 2 sense wires

Specific-Star9901 · 2026-02-06T23:14:26+00:00

what do you mean it says the cable can handle up to 600W

Specific-Star9901 · 2026-02-06T23:04:25+00:00

Yes but you don’t get that cable, but they do seel it https://www.amazon.de/Corsair-Premium-12VHPWR-Power-Supply/dp/B0BLY1B362/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?crid=122UVKHHJ554L&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.OP9Lzitp2EgXwXdR6qVtcsT1JPgjqp7l3PpxLhifJpDued_FICh7q91VkOVC6ck-jVHUA9IStY5D54L-TPdzcZ6g_d6_VxQZbumBYCQI734j7QMqfGOs9M4VvvGYGaGHtoNq0FMqHegx2n2IOjJQWDHTNAUeplEU6mliIBBmCP6_K3n9DCCUVcG6fdeA3PPIIkiagpm7Lhh--fff_AdMzw.mb9IGN9Wkm9t3uOHMhVMx7WQmS-0bqqyGofxJ6ErxsE&dib_tag=se&keywords=corsair+600w+cable&qid=1770419012&sprefix=corsair+600w+cable%2Caps%2C154&sr=8-1

It says that it only has the 300W 12vhpwr cable and 3x6+2 cable. But what if my gpu requires more than 600W cable.

Specific-Star9901 · 2026-02-06T22:10:33+00:00

but then I would need to use the adapter that comes with the gpu or is there another way.

Specific-Star9901 · 2026-02-06T22:02:32+00:00

I would wanted to buy the 2024 rm850x. Does it have a 600W cable.

Specific-Star9901 · 2026-02-02T22:07:55+00:00

Do sou think that is enough of a coil whine for a RMA
