lol, what is the point? "brings better cable management to a whole new generation" so instead of having the 16pin leave the card and be neatly managed you now have 4 - 8pin cables directly at the back of the card lol.

I'm intrigued with the filter caps. I feel like that's there for everyone who asks "can I run this on my old 850W PSU? It just barely meets the minimum requirements"

Personally I'd rather use 12 and eventually 16 pin cables directly from the PSU.
Sticking this on the back of a GPU ruins any hope of aesthetics of a build imo.

Not to mention making the card about an inch or so longer giving even less room to manage the now 4 8-pin power connectors.......  On the bright side though, it has more RGB and Evga advertising that we all need. NOT!

Was this an attempt to reduce cable clutter? What happened to the highly effective 12/16pin adapter cable. I use one now on my 3090FE and its extremely slim, clean, and reduced cable clutter immensely.

Wow. It allows you to connect four 8-pins. I just ordered one just so I can connect my last available 8-pin to my card. This should help spread the load when I’m pulling 600w on my 3090 ti ftw3. Currently when pulling 600w on just the gpu alone my three 8-pins get warm. This should definitely help get them cooler when pulling 600w since I’ll be able to add another 8-pin.

Um... there are only 12 conductors going into the GPU with this adapter. 32 conductors going into the adapter does not increase the current carrying capacity of the 12.
I would hazard that 3 8-pin PCIe going directly to the GPU would only warm due to the conduction from the GPU not actual power draw.

Pfft, I've been doing 600w with two 8pins for over a year with my Zotac 3090. Lol.

For just bench runs? 600w continuous for hours on end through two 8-pins wouldn’t be a wise thing to do. My usage case is continuous not just bench runs.

At least the cables will stay cool, even if the adapter gets warm? We'll see. The old powerlink was a a piece of sliding contact arcing garbage, so this is a great step up in comparison. And even though it is still a bunch of cables to route, at least it drops down the amount of unsightly clutter of a squid-looking y-cable (double-y, tipple-y, whatever).
The capacitor though? Please. I have no faith in that making much of any difference. The 32 to 12 reduction of the adapter should more than enough bottleneck the plug to the point that the impedance across the plug is the limiting factor of noise suppression. What does it matter when it is all being chopped up in a buck converter, filtered, and re-smoothed anyway?

I wouldn't think 90+% of people buying this would notice at all. What I will say is that you can't fit big bulk caps on the GPU, so the power supply has to have them all normally. This would (theoretically) help those with noisy supplies or ones that can't handle the current spikes. I wouldn't think they've fit enough caps in there to completely remove those (pretty sure that would cause other problems lol), but they might help a bit. It'd be interesting to see the difference in transient tests and ripple suppression on something like the EVGA Supernova G5 series that... didn't do so hot.

kind of dumb bringing 4x 8 pins to the card does not clean up anything , only the opposite
It would be great if you could hide the box and then bring out 1x 12 pin cable, that would clean things up,
obtw Zippytech it can not be used on the KPE ti because it 2x 12 pin

I was more asking if they'd offer a solution similar to this for the Ti KPE, it def won't work as shown due to the 2x12VHPWR reqs. Epsolike

Not sure what the PX1 notes say regarding this powerlink, but I wouldn't think the two are related. Got a link?

ok i see it now, asked Lee in the other thread. weird, but that makes me think they *will* be releasing a powerlink that supports 2 12VHPWR connectors. Interesting, I assume this will be compatible with 40 series cards that use this power delivery configuration

If they would make a Modular unit with cable in and outs , you could use 2 for a Kingpin. And Yes I would order 8x 8pin custom short cables and mount the boxes in the back or bottom of chassis and run 2 custom 12 pin cables to the card. As for now I am awaiting the EK block for my TI , July 18th.

I am glad to see this since we might see something like this since maybe it will be used on future cards or at least a reversion of it made to fit them.
