Power connectors for GPUs
#5
Yeah, this very much depends on your system. For example, the HP Z series have some serious headroom over their stated power delivery. There are many threads on the web where folks have successfully installed and used GPUs with much higher power ratings than HP officially support.

The key is to look at the power supply sticker, and do the math yourself to see if it can deliver. Part 2 of that is to use high quality 6 to 8 pin adapters. From memory, I believe HPs will reliably deliver 212W or 216W from a quality 6 to 8 pin adapter. It's comfortably above 200W.

I was almost exclusively a Mac user when I started dabbling in Hashcat. They stopped offering competitive hardware, so I incorporated a bunch of Z820s into the workflow, all loaded up with Pascal cards which are unsupported (1080 Tis to 1030s). They work beautifully, even in Hackintosh mode.

Found a relevant thread:
