Wow. The Nvidia adapters are built very poorly.

I ordered a 3x8pin - 12 pin 600W cable for a HX1200 from Cablemod and they are back ordered by a fair margin, it says shipping on the 7th November, however I also ordered another one from ModDIY (went with a 2x8 pin - 12 pin 600w), ordered it 2 days ago and shipped it yesterday with tracking (it comes from Hong Kong). The ModDIY site I've noticed also has more options (including cable material type) and different cable lengths (which is what I really wanted) and cost me in total, £2 more than the Cablemod one.
What length did you order?
Also just out of interest why did you not order a Corsair one directly from Corsairs website? They do sell them. https://www.corsair.com/us/en/Categ...-Supplies/12-pin-GPU-Power-Cable/p/CP-8920274

That one isn't rated to 600w, I actually have one of those but that was for the Founders 3080 and 3090, the 600w for the 3090ti (and now 4090) was out of stock. I ordered a 40cm cable but I'm starting to think now I should have ordered a 50cm
. (I have a Fractal Define 7 XL and current cable doesn't touch the side glass panel). Edit: Actually just checked it just touches it.

Ahh I see. Yes I was also wondering over length, guessing 50-60cm should be enough to be safe in larger cases like the Phanteks P600S.That one isn't rated to 600w, I actually have one of those but that was for the Founders 3080 and 3090, the 600w for the 3090ti (and now 4090) was out of stock.

RX 6xxx series used the standard 6+2 pin PCIe power connectors - AMD has yet to use the 12-pin.
What use is that with only two 8-pin connectors?!
It supplies the required 600w with the corsair lead , each 8 pin on that cable is rated for over 300w ( about 340w each )

I wonder why every cable maker cut the 2 sense pins?
And what would happen if someone connected a fully wired cable.
And what would happen if someone connected a fully wired cable.
Because you have to ground those 2 to have full 600W available. So in abscence of communication with psu, nothing else is needed.
Soldato
Yes I know that.
But what happens when I buy a new PSU and it has a fully populated GPU cable.
So 2 extra sense pins, that are wired up and not cut.
Soldato
A new PSU would require a new cable because it will have the new socket on the PSU.
The pages there explain what the other 2 optional sideband connectors do.

That must be the “one person” arknor said had the problem!

I get buying a 3rd party cable (e.g. Cablemod) for aesthetics but people shouldn’t have to be buying them on grounds of safety after spending £1700+ on a product.

Will be ordering a cablemod 4090 4pin for my 3090ti as I can use it with 3pins and ill be set for further upgrades, just waiting on them getting the 90 degree adapters in.
