Welcome to the Forums!
The 1600 T2 PSU is not a native ATX 3.0 power supply, so in this case we do recommend using the adapter for the 12VHPWR that is usually supplied by the manufacturer that makes the graphics card that requires this type of connection.
Alternatively, if you do not wish to use an adapter, we do offer a newer ATX 3.0 power supply that are available as shown on the links below.

in 2019 I purchased the EVGA SuperNOVA 1600 T2 1600W 80 Plus Titanium Modular Power Supply. Are there updated EVGA cables I can purchase (12VHPWR?) for new GPUS? Or is the 12VHPWR cables only available on new PSUs with the ATX 3.0 standard?
