Ok so im trying to install my GTX 770 pcie 3.0 into my pcie 2.0 mobo. I have a pcie 6 pin connected with no issues. Im having troubles with the 8 pin, i have several options to work with but i cant find the right cables to work with, connected to my PSU i have an 8 pin heading out that does not fit into the GTX 770, and i also have the one that comes with the card which is an 8 pin that fits into the 770 that splits into 2 female 6 pin connectors (which i can not find a 6 pin to 6pin connector or 8 pin to 8 pin). Here is the list of specs on my computer.
