Can I save my PSU with my new GTX1070?

favetelinguis1 · Dec 28, 2017

Just got home with a new GTX1070 and while installing it I find that my current PSU does not have 8-pin power connector for the card. I have the following
PSU. Now my question is if it is possible to buy some extra cable so that I still can use my PSU or do i need to buy a new one? And if I need to buy a new one what spec should I look for to be sure it has the right types of connections?

on the article of the PSU it says it has 1x 6+2 PIN and one 6 PIN connector. So you should have a 2 PIN connector, just put in the 6 pin and the 2 pin.

it has the cables you need

6+2 = 8

The only 8 pin combination i have is for EATX12V, are there any transformation cables I can use tu turn any of the 4/6 pins into a 8 pin or will there not be enough juice in them?

I have found some 6to8 pin PCI express converter cables, would that be good enogh?
