Anything on this list fit your use case?

I frequently edit any posts you may quote; please check for anything I 'may' have added.

 

Did you test boot it, before you built in into the case?

WHY NOT...?!

There only 6+2 connecters I need a 6+8 for my gpu idk how to explain it it’s hard

6 + 8 is described as 6 + 6+2

If you're formally an engineer, avoid responsibility. That's what senior engineers get paid for.

6+2 IS an 8 pin connector... it just gives you the option that a static 8-pin only doesn't.

EVGA is a known brand and their W1 and N1 PSUs are 80+ rated. They're also fire hazards.

That's really not a good way to go about purchasing a power supply.

@Leemburns - why would you think that a fixed 8 pin & a 6+2 pin connector would not do the same job?

You clearly don’t know what you are talking about if you are recommending by brand and efficiency.

it looks like this, so for the one where you need 8, you use the left (6) + the right (2). For the one where you need 6 pins, you just use the left one (6) and leave the right one loose
