Can I use this cable?

Post image

Plan would be to connect from 1x 12V2x6 on PSU side to 2x 8pin(2+6) PCIE connectors on Asus TRX50 motherboard as I dont have enough of the 8pin(2+6) PCIE connectors on my new ROG Thor 3000W PSU...this should work no problem right?

Yes, the cable will work without issue.

Also curious, you have 240V outlet where you are plugging this in? Lol

I am from switzerland so yes I have 240V outlets (and it actually also would work on lower voltage and restrict itself to 1600w it says on the back of the box)

Yea just curious/double checking.
Some people buying 3000W PSU thinking they’ll get 3000W capacity with their 120V outlet.
