SXDOOL
SXDOOL 16 AWG 8-Pin to Dual 8-Pin (6+2) Power Splitter Cord 30.5 cm 4-Pack
Four 30.5 cm 16 AWG cables split one 8-pin GPU connector into two 6+2-pin plugs for high-current graphics cards
- TypeCase Fan Accessory
- 16 AWG wire carries 13 A versus 10 A on 18 AWG
- Supports up to 468 W at 12 V compared with 288 W on standard cables
- 5 cm length fits tight builds while keeping airflow clear
- 6+2 pin ends work as 6-pin or 8-pin for broad GPU compatibility
- UL1007 16 AWG tin-coated copper with braided sleeving for durability
Power Splitter Cord 4-Pack
This set contains four 16 AWG cables that split a single 8-pin PCIe connector from a modular power supply into two 8-pin (6+2) connectors for graphics cards. Each cord measures 30.5 cm and uses UL1007 tin-coated copper wire with a woven sleeve. The 16 AWG gauge supports up to 13 amps and 468 watts at 12 volts, exceeding the 10 amp and 288 watt limit of standard 18 AWG cables.
Builders Needing Extra GPU Power Connections
The splitter suits systems where the power supply lacks enough native PCIe leads for a multi-GPU setup or a single card requiring two 8-pin inputs. The 6+2 pin design works with both 6-pin and 8-pin graphics card sockets from brands such as ASUS, Gigabyte, Radeon and others. It is not a CPU-to-GPU adapter, so builders needing to convert an EPS 8-pin port should look elsewhere.
Integration Into a Modular PSU Build
One male 8-pin end plugs directly into a modular PSU's PCIe port, while the dual female ends feed the graphics card. The 30.5 cm length keeps cable routing tidy inside typical chassis without excess slack. Using 16 AWG wire frees up headroom for high-draw GPUs by reducing voltage drop compared to thinner 18 AWG alternatives.

Questions about this item
Does my power supply need an 8-pin PCIe output to use these cables?
Yes, each splitter connects to one 8-pin PCIe port on a modular power supply and provides two 6+2 pin connectors for the graphics card.
Can I plug a 6-pin graphics card into the 6+2 pin ends?
The 6+2 pin male ends slide apart so they fit either a 6-pin or an 8-pin graphics card socket.
How can I confirm the cable is delivering the rated 468 watts after installation?
Monitor the GPU power draw in software under load; stable operation at the card's rated wattage shows the 16 AWG wire is handling the current.
