Over the last few years, the power consumption of modern GPUs necessitated the creation of the 12VHPWR cable. This cable, however, needs to be very carefully seated. It has to be fully inserted and can’t be bent too much. This can create some clearance problems, especially if your GPU is very large, your case very small, or a combination of both.
Additionally, the position of the ports on the front of GPUs has always created challenges for cable management. So, even if you’re unconcerned with the potentially disastrous effects of an overly bent or incorrectly seated 12VHPWR cable, you still might consider picking this up purely for the aesthetic advantages.
So, CORSAIR has released the 12VHPWR GPU Power Bridge. Sporting a 180-degree design, our minimalistic 12VHPWR GPU Power Bridge is the perfect solution for some issues relating to the 12VHPWR cable.
On top of providing a secure, full power insertion into your graphics card and easing the stress of your 12VHPWR cable, our 12VHPWR GPU Power Bridge also provides a cleaner aesthetic with simpler cable management. Black and white silicon caps are also included in the packaging, which may be easily swapped out to match your build.
Our 12VHPWR GPU Power Bridge is also designed with high thermal endurance, capable of withstanding up to 105°C for reliable usage with the most power-hungry graphics cards. If your build is even slightly tight on space, we recommend picking this bridge up, as an improperly seated 12VHPWR connector can create some dangerous, disastrous, and expensive results. You can see how problematic it can be with a quick search on reddit. Our solution to avoid this is tidy, safe, and well worth the investment.
We have verified compatibility with the following graphics card models:
ASUS ROG STRIX and TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 40-Series GPUs are not compatible due to their designs featuring a rotated GPU power connector.
