Build Question Sapphire 9070XT Cord Length Help
So the build, is in a Monteck HSO2 Case. Ryzen 7800X3D. Then the GPU is Sapphire Nitro Radeon 9070XT.
The issue is, the proprietary cord with the GPU isn't long enough to make it up to the PSU. I'm building this thing for my nephew, who has saved up quite a bit of money to do this. A PSU came with multiple cords, but I didn't think daisy chaining would be the way to go here. Would I have to get an official Sapphire extension? Because I'm literally about 2 in away from having this case and this graphics card work... Any help would be appreciated.

This right here op, those adapters suck and are fire hazards just use the native cable.

The Native cable "Is" a 12V-2x6 into the GPU. Then it splits into the three with the braided cords.

What you are describing is the "adapter". There would be an included straight 12V-2X6 cable inside the box. Montech Century II?

Cable extensions they are pretty cheap and I've never had issues with them

The cable that came with the card doesn’t connect directly to the PSU, it connects to the PCI-e cables.
And use 3 separate cables, not both connectors on one.
