I'm asking because the psu only has ONE 8 pin connector plus a 6 pin , and not 2 8 pins that the 390 requires . Am I wrong ?

Would assuming PCI-E 8/6 Pin x 4 is the connectors available for graphics cards? Anything else? And what does 8/6 x 4 actually mean

Are you wanting everything explained or only certain parts?

You are correct, but to be fair they work for any kind of extension card that needs extra power.

The 8/6 pin means that the connector has 6 Pins fixt and 2 Pins modular so it can be used either way, look at this picture:

@Godlygamer23 sorry I edited my question

When companies talk about 8/6 like that, they mean that it's two eight pins with two six pins, making a total of four connectors. Below is Seasonic's wire configuration for the 620W and 520W units.

I don't understand the first question.
