Whereas in (rare?) cases of cast iron adapters 16 pin 12VHPWR des RTX-4090 are raised, AMD would almost take advantage of the situation.
Scott Herkelman, vice president of the AMD Radeon brand, tweeted to confirm the brand’s intentions for its next generation of graphics cards.
Three or four 8-pin connectors?
While a certain Kyle Bennett evokes the case of this Reddit user who took a picture of his adapter in bad shape, Scott Herkelman simply states that ” current Radeon RX 6000 and future RDNA 3 will not use this power connector “.
We can therefore imagine that AMD will rely on the classic 8-pin cables for its next graphics cards. It remains to be seen how many connectors: three for the largest models?
Finally, remember that the RDNA 3 graphics cards will be unveiled during the event ” together we advance_gaming that AMD has planned for November 3. There seems to be talk of only presenting the Radeon RX 7900 XT and XTX for the moment.
