I have a Supermicro 846 chassis which has a PWS-920P-SQ 920W silent power supply and running an X10DRI-T motherboard. I would like to add a GPU to box which has a two 6+2 ports. I have this cable thus i need only a single 6+2 pin cable. Which PSU/PDB do i need?
I don't own one but AFAIK, the standard 846 PDBs don't have GPU / PCIe 8 pin (6+2) connectors. For sure the 826, 216, 836 PDBs don't have it.
You may have to use 2x SATA > PCIe or 2x Molex > PCIe
Use good quality ones to avoid fire hazards. Depending on # drives you already have, make sure you are distributing the power draw across the outputs.
The PDU from the 747 series (PDB-PT747-4648) might fit due to the PSU layout, but I've not personally confirmed. The one from the 842 chassis (PDB-PT842-8824) won't fit since it uses PSUs that are a different size.
