Seasonic Native 12V-2×6 Cable
A Single Connector To Power Them All
Native 12V-2x6 Cable
Seasonic introduced the native 12V-2×6 600 W graphics card cable to power high-performance GPU / graphic cards. This cable can be used with any of our ATX 3.0 or 3.1 power supplies released on the market. Please see below for important compatibility information.
The new 12V-2×6 cable (ATX 3.1) is fully backward compatible with the previous 12VHPWR connector (from ATX 3.0). This means you can safely use a 12V-2×6 cable with devices designed for 12VHPWR.
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 native 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.

Compatible with any Seasonic ATX 3.0 or 3.1 power supplies
The native 12V-2x6 90-Degree cable 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.
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.

Recommended Installation of the Native 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 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.

FAQ
The native cable is intended for compatible Seasonic ATX 3.0 and ATX 3.1 power supplies from 650 W upward. This includes current PRIME TX/PX ATX 3.1, VERTEX GX/PX, FOCUS GX ATX 3.x and CORE GX ATX 3.1 models. ATX 2.x power supplies do not support the native PSU-side 12V-2×6 cable.
If you are unsure about a specific model, check our Cable Compatibility Guide before connecting it.
Yes. The 12V-2×6 connector is backward compatible with the previous 12VHPWR implementation used with ATX 3.0 hardware. That means a compatible Seasonic ATX 3.x PSU can use this cable with a graphics card designed for 12VHPWR. For a closer look at the connector change, see our Native 12V-2×6 Cable Guide.
The cable is rated for up to 600 W and uses 16 AWG wire with high-current terminal connectors. The PSU itself still needs to be correctly sized for the graphics card and the complete system, so always follow the GPU manufacturer's recommended power-supply rating as well. You can use our Wattage Calculator if you want to check the full system configuration.
Make sure the connector is fully inserted, click-locked and seated properly at both ends before using the system. Do not bend the cable sharply next to the connector or apply sideways pressure once it is connected.
Both connectors on this native 12V-2×6 cable are the same, so there is no dedicated PSU end or GPU end; either connector can be used on either side. Our PSU Cable Guide explains the different GPU power connectors and how they are used.
No. This is a native 12V-2×6 to 12V-2×6 cable, so both the PSU and graphics-card ends use the 12V-2×6 connection. Seasonic also offers adapter-style cables for compatible older modular PSUs that use 8-pin connectors on the PSU side. Always check the exact cable type before ordering or reusing one. You can browse the current Seasonic cable range for the available options.
