5070ti Power Cable Question

[West]

Morning,

I'm in the process of waiting for my 5070ti to arrive (RIP my Wallet)

I currently have a 4070, on which is running off a single 8 pin PCIe cable into my Modular Gigabyte UDM Gold 750 PSU, on this cable I am lead to believe, is a Daisy Chain type cable which has the same 8 pin again on the same run, which I would assume is to use on more powerful graphics card, and I believe my 5070ti will need both possibly by an Adapter supplied with the GPU.

My question is, will the 5070 run off the daisy cable OK or is it advised to get another PCIe cable?, if so, where would be the best place to get another cable?

PSU is a UD750GM.

Thanks in advance!

It will work, but it is preferable to have separate cables going into the 12V 2x6 adapter but I'd wager most people use just the one (maybe not on here though) The GPU manufacturer will likely have advice on what is the best configuration.

That PSU should have come with: PCI-e 6+2 Pin x 4 : 600mm+150mm*2

As Rob_B said that PSU should come with four separate PCI-E cables.
The general advice is connect individual 8-pin (6+2) cables from your power supply into each port on the included adapter, some overclocked 5070ti cards need three PCI-E cables.
It's not advisable to use daisy-chained pigtails on a single cable.

What's the model of 5070ti?

Be placing the order toward the end of the month.. just waiting for some money to drop!

Will be either the Gigabyte OC or the ASUS Prime OC

I don't have my original cables (I thought I had stashed them but apparently not!!)
