Quote:New rumors are doing the rounds that suggest the Nvidia RTX 3080 Ti, and other upcoming Ampere graphics cards
could require a new 12-pin PCIe connector to provide the requisite power – and if true this could prove very
frustrating for potential upgraders.
While current Nvidia graphics cards usually use eight-pin connectors from the PSU (power supply unit) to run
but a new technical illustration suggests that Nvidia is looking at using a new 12-pin PCIe power connector
measuring around 19 x 14 x 8.35mm
