Will two 6 to 4 pins be enough?

I've recently bought an XFX Radeon RX 480 graphics card for my prebuilt tower. The card game with a 8 pin molex that sprawls out to two 6 pins, though my power supply only has two 4 pins and a sata (and truthfully sone else very small that I've honestly never seen before). I plan on buying two individual 6 pin to 4 pin adapters, though I've heard that may not be enough power? Do 4 pins conduct less power than a 6 pin, and if so, wouldI need to get one 6 pin that sprawls to two 4 pins and one for my sata, or will the two individuals 6 to 4's be all right?

This sounds a lot like a PSU that ought to never be used with such a GPU.
