Hi all I've recently ordered all the parts for my new 3090 build, most of them from here at OC I might add lol.

I have received my 3090 FE today and I have a question, is anywhere here in the UK selling a 12 pin adapter yet for the Founders Ampere cards.

The included adapter looks hideous, and I've gone for Corsair premium cables all round, I'd hate to finish it off with that awful looking Y cable, what we're Nvidia thinking.
 
Just googled "custom 12 pin adapter nvidia" and found a custom sleeved cable. Unsure if should say who because they may be rival firms. :)
 
Thanks for the replies guys I've tried google and only managed to find some US retailers and a load of Chinese knock off extensions on Ebay which I wouldn't touch with a barge pole lol. I suppose I'll make do for now, but I'm hoping the full Corsair cable is available soon
 
I got it new/sealed on EB from someone who did not need it, someone here offered one for free to another user today.
Nice you got lucky then mate, I'm sure I'll come across one at some point. Can't for the life of me understand why Nvidia made the cable look so awkward and ugly lol.
You'd think after charging £1400 for a GPU they could at least include a longer sleeved extension.
 
Corsair sell a 12 pin cable for £20.

Google SKU CP-8920274
Yeah I've tried going through the Corsair website but when I click find a retailer I get taken directly to the homepage of the company and none of them seem to have any in stock.

Guess it's quite rare at the moment lol
 
Yeah I'll make do with the awful Y splitter for the time being. Should have probably gone for a MSI or Asus version with standard 8 pin, but I got a deal on the FE that was too good to miss
 
I ordered one direct from Corsair just last week.

If you find the page on the corsair site that says find a retailer, try replacing the 'ww' in the URI to 'uk' ;)

Thanks a lot for that, I managed to find it and I've ordered it now. Really appreciate it, thought I was never gonna find one lol.
 
It took a couple of days as it came from the Netherlands but it does tidy things up nicely.

Yeah that looks miles better mate, there's no rush for delivery as I'm still waiting on OC to dispatch my case and MB etc, they must be snowed under at the moment as I've not heard anything since I placed the order Monday morning. That's a gorgeous rig by the way mate, bet your proud of that one
