โ˜› Connector A: GPU 8 pin female, Connector B: PCI-E 8 pin (6P + 2P) male (CPU-PCIe cable), material: plastic + metal. โ˜› 2x 6 + 2 pin PCIe MaleOne Port is a GPU 8 pin for connecting to a modular power supply. The other port is a dual PCI-E 8-pin (6P + 2P) for connecting to a video card. โ˜› A cost-effective solution, this GPU 8-pin/dual 8-pin power cable eliminates the cost of upgrading computer power for compatibility with dual video card systems. Computer power upgrade Compatible with dual video card system. โ˜› Note: This is a GPU 8 pin to GPU 8 pin splitter cable (GPU to GPU), not a CPU 8 pin to 2 X PCIe 8 cable (CPU to GPU), both are very similar Masu.

Cheap splitters at Cables & Interconnects

So if you're not careful when plugging in, the cables on the splitters will push out of the 8 pin at the back, every splitter I had had it. Incorrectly protected, not quite sure, if it doesn't connect securely, there may be a short circuit.

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • Have nuances

I almost burned my PSU

I needed cables to distribute power from the PSU to my risers. After turning the device on, my power supply clicked and would not turn on. After all the splitters were removed, the power supply turned on. Luckily the power supply has built in protection, otherwise I would have lost it.

Pros
  • Useful not only for its intended purpose
Cons
  • Clarity

False advertising, 22AWG instead of 18AWG, low quality

Wires are not as thick as advertised by seller, about 22AWG instead of 18AWG. This isn't enough to power higher performance GPUs, and you'll experience occasional OS crashes and reboots that occur from time to time. The wires get hot, but thankfully they don't burn when FireWire is on. The pop-up from the connectors easily creates a bad connection when connected to the GPU connectors. I wish I had known the facts beforehand when I used these cables on a remote desktop machine that wasโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Accessories and supplies
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled

DO NOT BUY THESE - NOT 18 AWG FLAMMABLE

These are actually 18 AWG cables. I failed about 15 of them and now I have to replace them all. I'll see if Revain will refund me one of these - I've bought quite a few over the months. I can only imagine how many stability issues my setup has with these splitters. Not only do they pose a fire or melting hazard, which of course can damage your equipment, they are also cheaply made with wires coming out of the connectors. very easy. I would strongly advise against buying them, especially givenโ€ฆ

Pros
  • AV Accessories
Cons
  • Expensive

I use them to split 6 to 6+2 cables from my backplane into two for risers. I could power more adapters per output, but I had to make at least two adapters per cable to have enough for my GPUs. Anyone who has built a PC for a long time knows the golden rule - never use modular cables of other ATX power. deliver. I was concerned about using 3rd party cables to disconnect the main cables from my breakout board but they worked great. Again, I'm using them to split the connection to the breakoutโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Cables and Connections
Cons
  • Can't remember
