Power splitter for dual GPU power

This 20 cm cable splits a single PCIe 8-pin connector into two 8-pin (6+2) male plugs. It lets a power supply with one 8-pin output feed two graphics cards that each require an 8-pin or 6-pin input. The 18 AWG tinned-copper conductors carry the current. It is built for mining rigs and multi-GPU gaming setups.

PCIe 8-pin only, not EPS

The female end accepts only a PCIe 8-pin header from the power supply. It will not fit a CPU EPS 8-pin socket, so builders using EPS connectors must choose a different adapter. The splitter adds two 6+2 pin outputs but does not create extra power capacity; the PSU rail must still supply enough wattage for both cards.

18 AWG conductor gauge

The wire gauge is 18 AWG, which determines how much current the cable can safely carry. Builders should verify that their PSU rail and graphics cards stay within the current rating for this gauge. If the combined draw exceeds the rating, a heavier cable or separate PSU cables are required.

Questions about this item

Should I use this splitter when my power supply has only one 8-pin PCIe connector but my build needs two?

Yes, the cable splits a single 8-pin PCIe female into two 8-pin (6+2) male plugs, letting you run two graphics cards from one PSU header.

What does the 18 AWG rating tell me about real-world use?

18 AWG tinned copper conductors handle the current draw of modern GPUs over the short 20 cm run without excessive voltage drop or heat.

Will this work with an 8-pin CPU power socket on my motherboard?

No, the female end is keyed for PCIe 8-pin only and cannot mate with an EPS 8-pin CPU header.
