MSI is prepping its next-generation power supplies for launch armed with support for NVIDIA’s Lovelace GPUs. Capable of delivering up to 600W of power to PCIe Gen 5.0 graphics cards, this PSU comes with a native 16-pin PCIe connector, also known as the 12VHPWR. This is the default connector for the RTX 3090 Ti, albeit an adapter allows the use of two standard 8-pin connectors as well.

Gigabyte already as the PG5 Series UD1000GM PG5 in stock in some area.

 

I wonder if we will be able to use cable adapter conversion.

Going to have to use adapters. I'm not rebuying my $500 PSU's.

I spent enough in the last 12 month that am not going to buy anything for the next 4 years except maybe a 13900k. Better have adapter ready by then

 

Power supply will cost 3k when everything go back to normal after the 32 dose of covid vacine 

 

Edit: Just realised the 3090ti come with one. No idea if the 4000 serie will ship with adapter

So is 16-pin the way forward? My FE 3080 Ti has a 12-pin?

 The 16 pin is a 12 + 4  but it look like 12 pin. 

 

The 12VHPWR auxiliary power connector includes twelve large contacts to carry the power and four smaller contacts beneath carrying the sideband signals.
