I have an Xtreme Gear 600w ATX PSU that has two 4 pin and one 6pin PSI connectors. The

EVGA GTX960 requires 8pin and comes with a 2 6pin to 8 pin Y adapter. So my question is.

Would it work with one 6 to 8pin adapter, a 2 4 to 8 pin Y adapter, or a 2 4 to 6 pin Y adapter

then connecting both 6 pin to the 8 pin Y adapter it comes with. Would any of these config's work

or are two 6 pin's for 8pin adapter required for this GPU to work properly?

you have two pcie power plugs there, one is 4+4(bundle together to make 8) and also a 6+2, bundle to make 8, no need to use adapters, those other ways sound wrong, you cant make a 75w 6 pin adapt to a 150w 8 pin with adapters as it will still be only 75w on the 8 pin.
I would buy a better psu though, this cheap one with single 30a +12v rail is not modern gaming ready and may be unstable or eventually fry
