I'm looking to buy some replacement PSU cables for an EVGA 850 BQ 80+ Bronze to power a Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3090 Gaming OC 24G GPU. The GPU needs 2 x 8 pin cables.
 
I am wondering if the cables from the set (101-CK-0850-B9) will work for me. I ask because I don't see the 850 BQ on the list.

Could someone please confirm compatibility between these cables, the PSU and the GPU. Thank you!

    I would say no, but best to ask evga support to confirm... https://www.evga.com/about/contactus/

    If possible, I would recommend getting a new PSU.  Although 850 watts according to the calculator is enough to power the 3090, the reality is that it could give you more headaches as power spike draw and age of your current PSU may impact overall performance.  EVGA has a few 1000 watt psus in the 150-200 range that should provide you enough power to support your AIB 3090.  If you also factor that you need new cables the upgrade should be even more attractive.

    After a little bit of checking around the cable set you posted (101-CK-0850-B9) does not seem to be compatible with the 110-BQ-0850-V1 PSU you have.
    I used these resources to check:
    https://www.evga.com/support/faq/FAQdetails.aspx?faqid=59698
    https://eustore.cablemod.com/compatibility/
     
    I would not try it if neither of these confirm, instead i have to agree with the above comments and i would highly recommend atleast a 1000W and Gold PSU or above, not only because of your graphics card of choice, but to have a little bit of headroom as that is most optimal for the longevity of PSUs and it's not something we buy every year or even every two years.
     
    These models are what i recommend, but feel free to ignore if you have something else in mind: 220-G6-1000-X1 / 220-G7-1000-X1 / 220-P6-1000-X1
