How to find compatible PCIe (6+2) cables for a modular PSU? I'm using a modular Sparkle Power / "[Canon 2000W](https://www.fsplifestyle.com/en/product/cannon2000w.html)" (FSP2000-52AGPBI), and to keep a long story short I need more 6+2 PCIe cables for it. The system has multiple NVidia A6000 GPUs, which are 300W cards. I've been using each with a single 6+2 cable that came with the PSU. Well, apparently those types of cables are only rated for 150W load, so I've kept the GPUs power-capped to ensure the system stays on. We want to run the A6000s at full speed, and for that we need TWO 6+2 cables for each GPU. We don't have that many. While the PSU has more than enough PCIe connections, I don't think it came with enough cables. I know modular PSU cables are not all compatible with each other, so I don't want to just buy some random cables to do trial and error. Are there some modular PCIe cables that are more common than others?…
