On my Asus Strix 980, I have one 8 pin and one 6 pin connection. Can I just run one 8 pin to the graphics card, or do I have to hook up both the 8 pin and the 6 pin?
 
Solution
You should run the card with all the necessary connections.
It has 8+6? You should fill both the 8 and the 6 pin (without using adapters)
If you dont have the necessary connections thats a good sign your PSU is not up to the task of running the card.

Thanks missed the 8 pin 6 pin cable with my new modular PSU.
