I have a 2GB GAINWARD GTX770 PHANTOM GPU and a 600W Seasonic PSU (SS-600HM Active PFC F3 (Ball bearing)), I also have an 8pin to PCI-E 8pin(6+2) connector. there doesn't seem to be any valid connections although the 6 pin does seem to fit into the gpu but the problem is the psu's male 8 pin to doesn't connect to the cable's female 8 pin, is it the wrong cable do i need another cable as well or do i need a different PSU?

You are correct, I don't see any 8-pin connectors on that PSU. Ideally, I'd say upgrade to a PSU with 8-pin power connectors, possibly a higher wattage PSU if you're getting a new one. Some companies make Molex-8 pin adapters but they're never recommended.

I take that back, Kekoh is right, as long as you still have that cable you'll be fine.
