Just received my gtx770 , it has two 8 female pins. I have in my PSU one 6 pin and one 8 pin.
Can i use 6 and 8 pin in my graphic card, or one 8 pin + 8 pin adapter ?

No you shouldn't force a 6 pin in a 8 pin slot.
What power supply do you have?
You most likely need another power supply.

yeah get a new power supply it probably doesnt have the power to supply the gtx 770 if it doesnt have the connectors

can i use the pci-e 8 pin + the adapter 8 pin ?

kunthakenthe · Aug 7, 2014

i mean the 2 molex to 8 pin adapter not 6 pin to 8 pin.
2 molex to 8 pin adapter + pci-e 8 pin
does it work ??

wait do you mean your psu has two 8 pin connectors just that its a molex type. if so just use them

if you mean it a 6 to 8 pin on your psu and you want to use a 8 pin adaptor i dont think you should i think you should just buy a new psu.

its not a 6 to 8 pin
its an 8 pin + 2 molex to 8 pin adapter

Suztera · Aug 8, 2014

What is your power supply first? Brand and model?

theking25 · Aug 8, 2014

OCZ ZS - 650 Watts

theking25 :

Should be ok to use the molex adapter with your power supply.

Suztera :

FYI, the 6 pin and the 8 pin are the same, just with 2 extra. a 6+2 connector is the same as an 8pin.
