PSU 4+2 + 4+2

[Francisco2596]

My PSU has a cable that comes split in two 4+2 conectors but I need a 8 pin conector

The question is can I  plug on lt the 2 4pins conectors in to the gpu?

No, that 4+2 connector is for your CPU. You want the 6+2 pin connector.

Could you take a photo? I've seen 4+4 and 6+2 but not 4+2.

I'm just now realizing you said 4+2, not 4x2. Can you send a picture? I've not seen one of those connectors before

Are you sure you have counted right?

 

Is it a prebuilt?

You can plug in the 6+2 connectors into an 8 pin PCIe power connector. The point of having them 6+2 is so that it can be plugged into both 6 and 8 pin connectors.
