Hi there experts,

I have EVGA SuperNOVA 850 P5 Power Supply, 80 PLUS Platinum PSU and currently running with single RTX 3070. I would like to connect 5 more GPUs so that I could run 6 GPUs in total.

Is it possible to connect 6 GPUs to the EVGA SuperNOVA 850?

Other question is, PSU spec says it has 6 x PCIe sockets but I can only see 4 marked as VGA. Any particular reason ?

Thanks,
It's good that you read the documentation.

If the video cards only have an 8-pin power connector, then you can connect it, but I strongly advise against doing this.
Better buy an additional power supply and connect 4 GPUs and mobo to your power supply and 2 other video cards to another power supply unit.
