The 5800x with 8 cores appears to offer poor value, so I switched to the 5900x. It doesn’t seem like a big difference, so I’m proceeding to cancel it.

It seems you're asking about the PCIe power cables for the 6900XT. Did you mean to inquire if there are distinct PCIe power cables connected to it?

I own three separate PCIe power cables because my 6900 XT has three 8-pin power connectors. I believe the problem only appears during low-demand games on competitive settings. High-quality graphics games work perfectly, so I thought the CPU wasn’t powerful enough.

It seems games aren't optimized for 12 cores, and a 5800x would have been preferable.

It was just a $100 variation between the 5800x and 5900x versions, which seems more reasonable in terms of worth.

I get what you mean. But if you're limited to more than 8 cores, extra cores are wasted. Games run best on 8 cores (and usually don't gain much from more than 6), so the 5800x seems like a smarter choice. But if you're a content creator with 12 cores, it makes sense to pay for that extra power and threads to handle your tasks better.
