6 Pin Slot Connector

  1. This heavy-duty, coiled cable adapter is compatible with a 7-way RV blade trailer socket on the vehicle and adapts it to work with a 6-way connector on the trailer. Center pin on trailer side.
  2. On the motherboard there is the 24 pin motherboard connector, two 8 pin cpu connectors, and a 6 pin cpu connector. My power supplies are revolt pro 850, corsair 750x chained master/slave. I don't have any 6 pin CPU cables though. I have 4+4 and 8 pin.
  3. A 6-pin power connector can supply 75 Watt to the graphics card. So if your graphics card power consumption is more than 75W then it will have one 6-pin PCI-E power connector for its working.

6 Pin Slot Connector Pinout

I was looking for a PSU and many have a 6+2 pin PCI-E connector. Assuming power requirements and everything are fine, Can I put a 6+2 pin connector into a 6 pin slot on a video card (namely, a GTX 680)? Thanks in advance for advice!:). I recently bought a FATBOY XFX RX590 8GB GPU for my personal build. My power source is a 700W (Cooler Master RS-700-AMBA-D3), but it only has 4pin floppy and 6pin PCI-E slots. I have a PCI express cable that has a 6 and 8 pin connector, but I am fairly certain I cannot plug that in solely, right.

Is there a myth about 6/8 pin connectors - is this is a deciding factor when buying an AMD GPU ?
I was told on here i forgot which thread or it might have been a different forum , that dont get 6 pin connector only get 8 pin.
No actual reason was given.
At the moment i do not mind buying the ASUS Strix RX470 but it has a 6 pin.
I am also keen on the PowerColor ; Saphire Nitro + ; Gigabyte RX480 looks decent and priced well ; Asus G1 Strix
I cant remember if the Nitro+ has an 8pin.
Anyways for me the RX480 Gigabyte looks good value for money although i am pretty happy to get the RX470s
PowerColor was my primary choice of all because of price, except for the RX480 its stupidly priced like most other RX480's
Maybe not in the USD price range but then again i dont know what deal the USA has with China because its as if they never pay for taxes or shipping the prices of electronics is ALWAYS better in USA when comparing to England / South Africa , its crazy.
