Hey,

 

The GPU I am buying is an Aorus 3060, with one 8 pin power AND one 6 pin power connections(See attached). My power supply's GPU cables are daisy chained? (idk how to describe, see the photo below). This cable is one 6+2 pin connector, hooked onto another 6+2 power connector. 

 

 

How do I power this gpu? I also have a normal 8 pin cable by the way.

 

Thank you for your time, hopefully you know a lot more about this than me : ) 

 

Many thanks,

 

Ed

I can use both, but how do i use the 6+2? would i just not use the 2?

Yep. It’s called a 6+2 for a reason, it’s so it can be used for both a 6pin and a 8pin

I could use some help with this!

please, pm me if you would like to contribute to my gpu bios database (includes overclocking bios, stock bios, and upgrades to gpus via modding)
