so i wanted to buy a 1060, but all of them have an 8 pin connector and going by the discription of fractal, my psu doesn't have an 8 pin(also pcpartpicker says so). I am replacing my old 750ti, so all the parts below is what i have right now, except the strix.

 

BUT: my psu does have a 6+2 pin

 

so, even though pcpartpicker says it doesn't go together, does it? and is 450 enough? I mean the max output of the strix is 210 WATT, which mean my system will draw at max under load (with the gpu and cpu at max load see for cpu :http://www.hardwarecanucks.com/forum/hardware-canucks-reviews/71760-intel-skylake-i5-6500-i5-6400-i3-6100-review-12.html)

is no more than 400 watts.

 

in short: can i use the setup listed below?
