Black 16AWG cable with 6-pin male to 8-pin 6+2 male connectors, 100 cm

YEPLOOK

YEPLOOK 16AWG PCI-E 6-Pin to 8-Pin (6+2-Pin) Male to Male Internal Power Cable 100 cm

SKU CH-HPKZ-8VS15

A 16AWG PCI-E 6-pin to 8-pin (6+2-pin) male-to-male internal power cable, 100 cm long, connecting a standard PSU to graphics cards needing 6-pin or 8-pin power

Cable Length 100 cm

  • 16 AWG wire handles higher current than thinner cables
  • 100 cm length gives flexibility for large mining rigs
  • 6+2 pin connector fits both 6 pin and 8 pin GPU sockets
  • Copper conductors ensure reliable power delivery to graphics cards
  • Compatible with listed HP server PSU breakout boards

What this cable does and who needs it

This 16AWG PCI-E adapter converts a 6-pin power-supply connector into an 8-pin (6+2-pin) plug for graphics cards or mining risers. The 100 cm length gives routing flexibility inside server chassis or mining frames. Copper conductors handle the current draw of high-power GPUs without the voltage drop seen on thinner 18AWG wires.

Sustained-load behaviour

The 16AWG copper cores run cooler than 18AWG equivalents when a mining rig or compute node draws continuous current for days. Male-to-male ends lock onto both the PSU breakout board and the card, preventing the intermittent contact that causes throttling or shutdowns under 24/7 load. No active cooling is required on the cable itself.

Install notes and common pitfalls

Push each connector until the latch clicks; a loose seat is the main cause of melted pins. Verify the PSU breakout board pinout matches the listed server models before powering on — reversed 12 V and ground lines will damage the GPU. The fixed 100 cm length cannot be shortened, so measure the run first to avoid cable stress.

Not for builders who need a different length

The cable is only offered in the 100 cm size listed; shorter or longer runs require a separate purchase. It does not adapt 8-pin PSU outputs to 6-pin card inputs, nor does it split one connector into two. Systems using proprietary non-standard pinouts will not work with this straight-through wiring.

Questions about this item

Does the 16AWG cable run cooler than thinner wire when a mining rig draws full load all day?

The 16AWG copper conductors are thicker than 18AWG, so they present less resistance and generate less heat during sustained high-current operation.

What power-supply connector must I already have to plug this cable in?

You need a free 6-pin PCIe output on your power supply or breakout board; the cable’s 6-pin male end mates directly with that port.

Will the 6+2-pin end fit the 6-pin PCIe socket on my older graphics card?

Yes, the 6+2-pin male connector splits so the 6-pin portion inserts into a 6-pin GPU socket while the extra 2 pins hang clear.
