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.

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.

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

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.
