I am looking at a new PC build with an ASUS NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 16GB TUF graphics card and ASUS Intel Z790 ProArt Creator motherboard. It is a few years since my last build so this large card is concerning me for two reasons:

1) The weight on the PCIe slot. I see overclockers sell a Lian Li GB-002 Anti Sag Bracket for VGA Cards. Does this fit any ATX motherboard as I am not sure what it is screwing on to from the diagram.

2) Power supply cable, the ASUS web page states the card has a 16 pin connector, this is new to me do I need a power supply with a 12VHPWR cable? E.g as supplied with this Seasonic power supply
