Seasonic 12V-2×6 90° Cable

A Single Connector To Power Them All

SEASONIC 90° 12V-2X6 CABLE

Seasonic introduces the 12VHPWR 600 W graphics card cable to power high-performance GPU / graphic cards. This cable can be used with many of our current and past power supplies but with specific compatibility requirements. Please see below for important compatibility information.

Remark: Please note that the 90-degree VGA connector variant cable may have directional fit issues with some RTX 40 and RTX 50 VGA cards. We recommend checking the direction of the VGA power connector before use to ensure proper fitting.

A Single Connector To Power Them All

With the arrival of the new ATX 3.1 / PCIe 5.1 specifications, some graphic cards will now be powered by the new 12V-2x6 connector. Offering up to 600 W of power, the Seasonic 12V-2x6 cable has been crafted with high quality materials, such as high current terminal connectors and 16 AWG wires to ensure highest performance and safety in usage. Please see Sea Sonic's compatibility recommendations below:

Power supply requirement: 650 W and above

The 12V-2x6 cable that is provided with your Seasonic power supply is rated at 600 W. This means the maximum allowable power pull from the power supply by the VGA can be up to 600 W. If your VGA is very power usage intensive, then please consider power supplies that are rated at 750 W and higher.

Always follow the recommendations of your VGA card manufacturer for the minimum power requirement.

Power supply requirement: 2x PCIe Connectors

Your power supply must have 2x free PCIe connectors available where the Seasonic 12V-2x6's 2x PCIe connectors can plug into.
BOTH 2x8 Pin PCIe connectors of the 12V-2x6 must be connected into the power supply.

Seasonic 12V-2x6 (H++) Cables to Power the Latest Graphics Cards

Recommended Installation Of The 90° 12V-2X6 (H++) Cable

  • The 12V-2x6 cable is designed to work perfectly when installed correctly. The usage or this cable is exclusively beneficial when both the power supply and the graphics card are equipped with matching 12V-2x6 connectors. To ensure the safe and effective use of the cable, please follow these recommendations:
  • Both 2x 8-pin and 12V-2x6 connectors must be plugged at all times.
  • Ensure that all connectors are INSERTED, CLICK-LOCKED, and SEATED properly.
  • Avoid bending or applying force to the cable too close to the connector.
  • Once the cable is plugged into place, DO NOT bend it in any direction.
  • Please note that the 90-degree VGA connector variant cable may have directional fit issues with some RTX 40 and RTX 50 VGA cards. We recommend checking the direction of the VGA power connector before use to ensure proper fitting.

FAQ

The cable requires a compatible Seasonic power supply rated at 650 W or higher with two free 8-pin CPU/PCIe modular connectors. Compatible families include many PRIME, VERTEX, FOCUS and older Seasonic modular models, but compatibility is not universal. Before ordering, check your exact PSU model in our Cable Compatibility Guide.
The 90° connector can help with cable routing when there is limited space between the graphics card and the side panel of the case. Instead of bending the cable sharply immediately after the GPU connector, the cable exits at a right angle. For more information about correct 12V-2×6 installation, see our 12V-2×6 Cable Guide.
Yes. Both 8-pin connectors must be connected to the power supply whenever this cable is used. The cable is rated for up to 600 W, but the PSU itself still needs to be suitable for the graphics card and complete system. If you are not sure how much power your build needs, check it with our Wattage Calculator.
Not necessarily. The direction of the graphics card power socket differs between GPU models, and the 90° connector may not fit correctly on every RTX 40 or RTX 50 card. Check the position and orientation of the GPU connector, as well as the available case clearance, before choosing this cable. You can also review our PSU Cable Guide for more information about GPU power connections.
No. This cable uses two 8-pin connectors on the PSU side and a 90° 12V-2×6 connector on the graphics card side, so the two ends are not interchangeable. The native cable instead uses 12V-2×6 connectors on both ends and is designed for compatible Seasonic ATX 3.x power supplies with a native PSU-side 12V-2×6 port. You can compare it with our Native 12V-2×6 Cable.
