What power does a PCIe 8 pin connector provide?

  1. 150W

  2. 75W

  3. 200W

  4. 250W

The correct answer is: 150W

A PCIe 8 pin connector provides 150W of power. This is significantly more than what is provided by the other options, as 75W is the maximum power that can be provided by a PCIe 6 pin connector, and 200W and 250W are not standard power outputs for PCIe connectors. Additionally, using a PCIe 8 pin connector allows for more efficient power delivery, as it has more power pins compared to PCIe 6 pin connectors.
