I've discovered an HP Omen PSU for my PC build, currently it only has an i9 9900x but I'm adding a RTX 2080 Ti. It provides sufficient power, but I want a PSU that doesn't daisy chain its PCIe connectors. I don't know what other connectors it uses besides 24-pin and 8-pin M.II. I've talked to the seller on eBay but haven't gotten a reply. It's priced at £40, whereas similar non-OME PSUs cost £70-£100 for the same power rating.

It is not a 750W unit. It is a 550W unit.
There are two +12V rails, each able to handle 45A, totaling 540W.
You cannot simply merge PSU rails to boost wattage.
Here is the image of the PSU and its cables,

Anyone with funds for a Core i9 also has funds for a quality, brand new PSU.
Because the PSU supplies all components, it is
the most crucial part inside the PC.
That’s why NEVER compromise on a PSU! Also, avoid purchasing used ones...

I've contacted the seller on ebay but he hasn't responded. The price is £40, which is lower than similar non-oem PSUs with a power rating of £70-£100. Could you share the listing link? You're focusing on just the wattage and the 80+ efficiency rating. Is this a used unit? If so, can you confirm its age? I’d advise avoiding second-hand units. PSUs are crucial components of your system, so it’s wise to invest in a well-built one, no matter your budget.

It is not a 750W model. It is a 550W unit.
The setup includes two +12V rails, each able to handle 45A, totaling 540W. It is not possible to artificially boost output by merging PSU rails.
Here is a picture of the PSU and its cables, link:
https://www.cpumedics.com/dps-750ab-40c-...-omen-875/
Individuals with funds for a Core i9 also possess the means for a genuine, brand-new PSU.
Because the PSU supplies power to all components, it stands out as the crucial part inside a PC.
That’s why it is essential never to compromise on a PSU! Also, avoid purchasing used units.
For optimal performance with a dedicated GPU, a Tier A PSU is recommended. Examples include: Seasonic Focus/Vertex/PRIME, Corsair RMx/RMi/HXi/AXi, Super Flower Leadex Gold/Platinum/Titanium.
Tier A is suitable, while Tier A+ is preferred.
Here are some references:

An 850W unit falls under Tier A-, whereas the other two are Tier A.
