You can use something like that https://www.parallelminer.com/product/platinum-1200-watt-200-240v-power-supply-kit-for-gpu-mining-zec-dash-eth/, just buy 2 of these Smiley
One with 16 6+2 connectors and the second one with 8 6+2 connectors Wink

Also, you can use a PICO adaptor with server PSUs to ditch your ATX PSU completely Grin

Thanks, I've been looking at getting a PSU from parallelminer. But since I'm not in the US, the total cost including shipping and customs would come out to about what I have to pay for two Corsair HX1200's here. I'd prefer the HP's since I could power more cards, but the Corsairs are silent and have 10 year warranty.

The HX1200 has 8 6+2 connectors, so if I don't need to use the third connector on the Nitro+ I should be good. Hopefully.

Hello!

I'm contemplating building a new mining rig with Vega 56's, the Sapphire Nitro+ version is going to be available soon, and I'm thinking that might be a good one to use. They're big and bulky, but should run cool and the size isn't an issue.
However, it needs 3 8-pins connectors per card! Any ideas as to how I should go about that? I want to run at least 8 cards, but that'd be 24 8-pins connectors. Are that many connectors really needed per card considering I'll undervolt?

Thanks!
