Question 1

I am curious on the Power port on this GPU. I have a Thermaltake 850w PSU that has a 12VHPWR plug that seems to match the power on this GPU. Is that what I would use? Or how does this GPU work since its not the traditional 8(4+4) CPU/PCI-E connectors?

Accepted Answer

This new 2024 MSI Ventus GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER GPU requires at least two 8-pin PCIe power supply connectors. It comes with an adapter where the 8-pin PCIe cables plug in, leading to a single power connection on the GPU. The GPU requires a minimum 650 W PSU to run. Your 850 W PSU should be fine under normal circumstances, but it may be stressed it you tend to overclock or if your system (other than the GPU) has a high-power demand. General rule of thumb is to have a PSU that is capable of producing at least 10% more than the total power required by your system. For example, a 13th generation Intel core-i7 CPU requires 125 W, or an MTP of 253 W. That doesn’t include anything else on our system that requires power.

Maybe you should consider a PSU upgrade while you’re at it. You’re going to love the new GPU once you install it!  The built-in AI is amazing!
