New PSU needed, who makes one that comes with a 12pin PCI-E?

[gab344]

In the Market for a new PSU. I have a RTX 3090 FE. Now seasonic have canned their free 12pin PCI-E cable program who makes a PSU that comes with a 12pin PCI-E in the box?

Not sure any come with a 12pin pcie cable but you can buy a cable from corsair and seasonic will send you a cable.

I don’t think anyone is making them standard as yet.

reason is that only the top Nvidia cards need them. And as we know there aren’t make of them in existence yet

vast majority PSUs will still be 8pin and be shipped with 8pin cables for the foreseeable future. And above said, you can always buy cables or adaptors.

I don't know of any that supply the 12pin as standard yet ( there are supply problems with any PSU at the moment, let alone new versions ), but as mickyflinn said, Corsair and Seasonic can supply cables.

I thought that Nvidia supplied a 12pin adapter cable with all of their FE cards. If yours didn't then I'd take it up with them.

Ah now you have all pointed it out. It is kinda obvious that no PSU manufacturer is going to be putting a 12 pin PCIE for what is a tiny percentage of the user base. Haha Duh me

Was going to go seasonic for the excellent reputaion the brand has for quality, but ended up with a ASUS ROG THOR 850 because I'm a tart, and a sucker for flashing lights Guess I'll be looking at cablemods as the suppiled adaptor is fugly.

You can however buy a more tidy cable. Corsair make one, SKU CP-8920274

I am already appreciating the 12 pin cable adaptor, its kind of like asus quick-q connector thingy it simply makes reattaching psu cables more convenient.

Corsair do a 12pin cable. It's £20 from their website

You still got a Seasonic, but with an Asus badge on it.

Given most high end PSUs are modular now it shouldn't be long before we start seeing them with 12 pin cables included.

And to clarify, that is a good thing. (That it's a Seasonic underneath). I ordered an 850W ROG STRIX (not the Thor, I can't see the OLED screen through my PSU area if I'd bought that).

Just as a postscript, the Asus Thor came with a 20% off voucher for Cable mod! The included modular cables are for the most part individually sleeved (Plain black) and so I got a deal on the 12pin Nvidia FE cable, and a few other matching custom cables to suit my case, happy days!
