Internal Power Cable ShiverPeaks 8‑pin PCI Express to 2x 6‑pin (2x 13.3 cm) 0.13 m

ShiverPeaks internal power cable, 0.13 m long, converts a single 8‑pin PCI Express input into two 6‑pin PCIe outputs with the outputs spaced 13.3 cm apart. It is intended for internal routing inside a PC case to provide additional 6‑pin power feeds where a single 8‑pin PCIe power lead must be split for multiple graphics cards or PCIe devices. The compact length minimizes excess cable inside the chassis while the dual 6‑pin outputs allow connection of two devices or adapters that require 6‑pin power.

Advantages

The cable provides a simple, space-efficient solution to split an 8‑pin PCIe power connection into two 6‑pin connectors without modifying the power supply. Its short 0.13 m length reduces cable clutter and improves airflow inside the case. The fixed spacing of 13.3 cm between outputs helps reach nearby PCIe power sockets on adjacent cards or adapters. Designed for internal use, the cable maintains standard PCIe connector pinouts for compatibility with common graphics cards and PCIe devices.

Suitable for

• Splitting a single 8‑pin PCIe power lead to feed two 6‑pin powered graphics cards
• Connecting 6‑pin powered PCIe adapters or risers where an additional feed is needed
• Short internal cable runs inside compact PC cases or multi‑GPU configurations

Key specifications

• Cable type: internal PCI Express power splitter
• Input connector: 8‑pin PCIe
• Output connectors: two 6‑pin PCIe
• Overall length: 0.13 m (13 cm)
• Distance between outputs: 13.3 cm

How to use

Disconnect power from the system before installing the cable. Plug the 8‑pin input into the corresponding 8‑pin PCIe power socket from the power supply. Route the cable inside the case to avoid contact with fans or moving parts, then connect each 6‑pin output to the target graphics card or PCIe device. Reconnect system power and verify that connected devices receive power and function correctly. Do not force connectors; they are keyed to fit only in the correct orientation.

Recommendations

Use this cable only for internal connections and ensure the power supply can support the combined power draw of connected devices. For high‑power graphics cards, prefer direct dedicated connectors from the power supply rather than relying on splitters. Inspect connectors for secure seating and avoid excessive bending near connector ends to maintain reliable electrical contact.
