I need a new psu in order to power my graphics card. It takes one 6 pin and one 8 pin. Can anyone drop a few names?

How about GPU make and model? It's written on GPU and you can read it just fine without the need to boot up your PC.

Though, even if you have i7-7700K CPU and GTX 1080 Ti GPU, 600W range PSU is enough for such high-end system.

That being said, i suggest getting any Seasonic unit, in 600W range. E.g M12II-620 EVO, G-650, Focus+ 650 or PRIME 650 80+ Titanium,

M12II EVO and G series PSUs come with 5 years of warranty. (My Haswell build is also powered by M12II EVO series PSU.)
Focus+ is the newest PSU line from Seasonic and it comes with 10 years of warranty.
While PRIME 650 80+ Titanium is the best 650W PSU money can buy at current date.

With Seasonic PRIME...

I dont have my motherboard yet, my friend hasn't brought it yet, but all i know is that it's a micro board from around 2014. I'll have more information tomorrow when I get the mobo. I'm really new to this.

With Seasonic PRIME 80+ Titanium series, you'll get the highest efficiency (94%), tightest voltage regulation (0.5%), longest hold-up time (30ms), lowest ripple noise (20mV) and longest warranty (12 years) there is. Fully modular cables and toggle-able Premium Hybrid fan control too.

My Skylake build is also powered by PRIME 650 80+ Titanium PSU (full specs with pics in my sig).
Oh, all semi- and fully-modular Seasonic PSUs are also compatible with CableMod SE-series custom sleeved power cables. To match my black & red theme, i replaced the stock black power cables with CableMod SE-series red colored power cables.
