Hello. I need to set up my Be Quiet! PSU 12m 750W for the MSI RX 6800 gaming trio. The GPU needs three PCIe slots, but this PSU only has one 4.0 10-pin port that splits into two 6+2 connectors. That limits me to filling just two of the three slots, which won’t work properly. There’s also a 12-pin PCIe 5.0 port and cable, but I can’t connect it to the GPU. Do I really have to use Molex-to-PCIe?

This power supply is tailored for compact setups needing ATX3.0/12VHPWR ports and doesn’t offer much beyond that. You’ll need multiple PCie modules, and you can’t just swap in a 12VHPWR unit.

It looks like you might have misjudged the power requirements, since a 750-watt PSU is typically suited for larger builds. There aren’t any adapters available to fit this size unit.

I might reach out to BeQuiet and see if they offer a different cable option.

Alternative option could be Cable CP-6620

It looks like you need two 12-pin connectors on your PSU for the CP-6620 since you only have one and it's already in use.
