Hi.
Thank you for your message.
The card includes the cable demonstrated in the video, which features three 8-pin plugs designed for the PSU.
I understand you mentioned that your PSU supports 3x PCIE 8 (6+2) pin cables, with one having two connectors and the others having 12 pins at the ends.
For the GPU, you’d use the card’s included cable.
What I’m trying to figure out is whether the GPU’s 3-cable setup with only 8-pin connectors can fit into this PSU, since its ports are 12 pins.
Should the 8-pin cables cover all the necessary connections, or will there be empty slots in the 12-pin ports?
I know it might seem straightforward if you’re familiar, but I’m unable to purchase the card and PSU until compatibility is confirmed.
Your support means a lot.
Appreciate it.

Use the original BeQuiet cable from the factory and skip the adapters, that's what I always advise.

Connect the bequiet psu cables into the PSU. This provides four 6+2pin connectors.
Insert three of those 6+2pin connectors into the NVIDIA adapter that comes with the graphics card. This results in a 12VPWR plug.
Attach the 12VHPWR plug to the graphics card.
No, no, and no.
Do not connect the NVIDIA cable to the PSU. Doing so could damage your PSU or graphics card.

I had observed these cables before, but I wanted to confirm if the PSU/GPU would still work without them. Your assistance and the provided link are greatly appreciated. Thank you.
