NEW PSU POWER REQUIREMENTS
SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER POWER DRAW
More graphics power comes with higher power requirements. Make sure to choose a high-quality PSU to effectively power your new GPU.
NEW CONNECTORS AND CABLES
BRING THE POWER
Connect your new 12+4pin GPU port to two 8-pin PCIe ports on your PSU, so that it gets all the power it needs. You can also use the new CORSAIR 600W PCIe 5.0 cable, which also removes the need for adapters in your case.
TIME TO GET INTO CUSTOM COOLING
BEAT THE HEAT
High performance and power draw means higher heat output and cooling requirements. And nothing tackles heat like CORSAIR Hydro X custom cooling water blocks, so you get all the power you paid for.
