My psu is 500w and my card is the one in the title. I didn't know an 8 pin could be used to power a motherboard, so I just assumed it was for the pcie.
The card requires an 8+6 pin. Could I get an adapter or only use the 6 pin?
Also, I read online somewhere that my card's 8 pin and 6 pin share the same power thingy, so they connect to the same thing to power the whatever. (Sorry, not that good at the internals of GPUs)
