12VHPWR to dual 8-pin GPU cable
This 16-pin (12+4) female to dual 8-pin (6+2) male extension cable connects a power supply's native 12VHPWR output to a graphics card requiring two PCIe power connectors. It is built for users upgrading to an ATX 3.0 or ATX 3.1 PSU while retaining a current-generation GPU. The 18 cm length provides a short, tidy bridge inside the case.
Replaces custom sleeved adapters
The cable removes the need for separate 12VHPWR-to-8-pin adapters when a PSU only offers the new 16-pin native output. Each 8-pin end splits into a 6+2 configuration, so it fits both 6-pin and 8-pin GPU sockets without extra parts. The jump is worth it when moving to a PSU such as the Seasonic Focus GX ATX3 series or Corsair HX i-series ATX 3.1 units that ship with a 12VHPWR lead.
16AWG tin-coated copper handles high current
The 16 AWG conductors are rated for the power demands of modern GPUs drawing through dual 8-pin connections. PVC sleeving protects the wires during routing. Headroom exists for cards within the PSU's rated output, while the fixed 7-inch length limits placement to PSUs mounted close to the GPU power sockets.

Questions about this item
How much clearance does the 18 cm extension add behind the graphics card?
The cable measures 18 cm from the 16-pin female connector to the dual 8-pin male ends, so allow at least that depth behind the GPU plus room for the connectors themselves.
Which way round do the 16-pin female and dual 8-pin male ends go, and what is the common mistake?
Plug the 16-pin female end onto the PSU's existing 12VHPWR male cable first, then attach the two 8-pin male ends to the GPU; the frequent error is reversing this order.
When should the sliding 2-pin sections on the 8-pin connectors be removed or refitted?
Slide the extra 2 pins off when the graphics card needs a 6-pin PCIe connector, and slide them back on for an 8-pin socket; inspect the latch tabs each time you reconfigure.
