- 40 cm length fits most chassis layouts
- 6+2 pin male ends suit 6-pin or 8-pin graphics cards
- Ten cables included for multi-GPU or spare builds
10-Pack PCIe Power Splitter for GPU Upgrades
This 10-pack supplies ten identical Y-splitter cables that convert a single 8-pin PCIe female connector from a power supply into two 6+2-pin male plugs. Each cable measures 40 cm (1.31 ft) and uses UL 1007 18 AWG tinned copper wire. The pack is aimed at builders adding multiple graphics cards or replacing worn leads in mining rigs and multi-GPU workstations. No other components are included.
Build Quality and Daily Use
The 18 AWG conductors handle the current draw of modern GPUs while the PVC jacket resists abrasion inside crowded cases. Black and yellow colour coding helps trace each leg during routing. The 6+2-pin male ends mate with both 6-pin and 8-pin graphics card sockets, so one cable fits either connector type without adapters. The female end accepts only a PCIe 8-pin source, not a CPU 8-pin header.
Upgrade Path and When It Pays Off
These splitters replace single-ended PCIe cables when a power supply lacks enough native 8-pin outputs for a second or third card. The jump is worth it when the PSU has spare wattage but insufficient PCIe ports, avoiding a full PSU replacement. Buyers who need more than two connectors per rail or who require CPU 8-pin to PCIe conversion should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item
How does the 8-pin PCIe female connector split into two 6+2-pin male ends?
One 8-pin PCIe female port connects to the power supply, and the cable branches into two 6+2-pin male plugs so a single PSU lead can feed two GPU power inputs.
What clearance does the 40 cm length and 18 AWG wire need inside a case?
The 40 cm cable with 18 AWG UL 1007 conductors requires enough room for the Y-split and two 6+2-pin heads to reach the graphics card without sharp bends.
What is the correct order to attach the splitter to the PSU and GPU?
Plug the 8-pin female end into the PSU’s PCIe 8-pin output first, then connect each 6+2-pin male end to the graphics card, ensuring the 6+2 latch clicks securely.
