I have two EVGA GTX 980 TI Classified 2.0+ Graphic cards and they plug in with two 8 pin connectors each from the power supply

 

But both Graphic cards came with two 8 pin connector that plugs into the power supply and it splits into two 6 pin connectors

and im very confused about this....

No 8-Pin connector, no fun.

Do you have a 6+2pin connector cable? You might want to buy on if not.

Oh wait. That thing is an adapter from 2x6pin to 8pin.

Ther should be 8 pin connectors that came with your AX1500, A LOT of them!
