I'm using a modular Sparkle Power / "Canon 2000W" (FSP2000-52AGPBI), and to keep a long story short I need more 6+2 PCIe cables for it.

The system has multiple NVidia A6000 GPUs, which are 300W cards. I've been using each with a single 6+2 cable that came with the PSU. Well, apparently those types of cables are only rated for 150W load, so I've kept the GPUs power-capped to ensure the system stays on.

We want to run the A6000s at full speed, and for that we need TWO 6+2 cables for each GPU. We don't have that many. While the PSU has more than enough PCIe connections, I don't think it came with enough cables.

I know modular PSU cables are not all compatible with each other, so I don't want to just buy some random cables to do trial and error.

Are there some modular PCIe cables that are more common than others? I've searched Amazon for Sparkle / FSP / Canon PSU cables, and haven't had any luck. I don't want to buy a entirely new PSU just to get more cables.

I just had a second customer report that they never got their package.

Two orders went out via USPS. One to a PO Box in March, another to a "Unit" number in April (I'm not sure if the "unit" was an apartment or another type of PO Box). USPS marked both as delivered, but both buyers said nothing ever showed up.

I asked both users to open a case with Etsy, choosing the "My order hasn't arrived" option.

Since I pay for shipping through Etsy, it's covered under their "Purchase Protection". They were both refunded for their orders, and I got to keep the sale money. That's quite generous of Etsy to do this. But surely they won't keep doing that, forever, right?

Is there a limit to how many times Etsy does this? A per-month limit? So many refunds allowed per successful sales?

When trying to search for limitations on this, I only found a $250 total limit for each refund, and a "once a year" limit for damaged shipments.
