Internal power cable CORSAIR CP-8920429 — 12V 2×6 (male) to 2× PCI‑E 8‑pin, sleeved, black/white

CORSAIR CP-8920429 is an internal sleeved power cable that converts a 12V 2×6 male connector into two PCI‑E 8‑pin male connectors. It is designed for Type‑5 compatible power supplies and provides two separate 8‑pin PCI Express power feeds suitable for modern graphics cards and other PCIe devices. The premium paracord sleeving and dual‑tone connectors help with cable routing and visual matching in compact or custom PC builds.

Advantages

The cable features dual‑tone connectors to ensure clear orientation and a secure fit, and premium paracord sleeving for added durability and a neater appearance. Ultra‑flexible conductors allow easier cable management and precise placement inside tight cases, while low‑profile cable combs are included to give a professional, organized look.

Suitable for

• Providing two 8‑pin PCIe power feeds from a 12V 2×6 Type‑5 PSU output
• Feeding power-hungry modern graphics cards in compact or full‑tower PCs
• Custom PC builds where sleeved, color‑matched cables are preferred for tidiness

When it may not be suitable

This cable is not suitable for power supplies that are not Type‑5 compatible or that lack a 12V 2×6 male output. It also should not be used to exceed the PSU’s rated current on the 12V rail; ensure your power supply supports the combined power draw of connected devices.

Key specifications

• Connector configuration: 12V 2×6 (male) to 2 × PCI‑E 8‑pin (male)
• Sleeving: premium paracord-style sleeved finish
• Cable flexibility: ultra‑flexible conductors for easier routing
• Included accessories: low‑profile cable combs
• Color: black and white

How to use

Turn off and unplug the power supply before installing the cable. Connect the 12V 2×6 male end to the corresponding Type‑5 PSU output, then route the sleeved cables to your graphics card(s) and attach each PCI‑E 8‑pin male connector to the device’s power sockets. Use the included cable combs to align the individual wires for a tidy appearance. After installation, verify secure connections and power on the system to check device recognition and stability.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm your PSU is Type‑5 compatible and has a matching 12V 2×6 male output
• Ensure the PSU can handle the total power draw of your graphics card(s)
• Check physical clearance and cable length requirements inside your case

Usage recommendations

For reliable operation, use this sleeved cable only with compatible Type‑5 power supplies and avoid overloading the PSU’s 12V rail; route cables to minimize sharp bends and secure them with the supplied combs to maintain airflow and a clean build aesthetic.
