## Description

desertcart.com: Cable Matters 2-Pack 6-Pin to 8-Pin PCIe GPU Power Adapter Cable, 4 Inches | PCIe Power Cable, 6 Pin Female to 8 Pin Male, for Compatible Low-Power Graphics Cards and Power Supplies : Electronics

## Features

- 6 Pin to 8 Pin PCIe Adapter: Connect a 6-pin male PCIe power plug from a compatible power supply to the 8-pin PCIe power input on a supported graphics card. Confirm the connector types before ordering
- For Compatible Low-Power GPUs: Use the PCIe power adapter only when the power supply and its 6-pin PCIe connection provide sufficient power for the graphics card. Check the documented power requirements of the PSU and GPU before installation
- 8 Pin to 6 Pin PCIe Adapter: The GPU power adapter changes a 6-pin PCIe connection into an 8-pin connector but does not increase the PSU wattage, current capacity, or available power. It is not suitable for bypassing GPU power requirements
- Secure PCIe Connections: The 8-pin male connector features a locking latch, while the 6-pin female connector uses a keyed housing to support proper alignment and help prevent accidental disconnection
- Convenient 2-Pack: Use the two PCIe adapter cables with separate compatible systems or keep one as a spare. Compatible with select Gigabyte, Radeon, and Sapphire graphics cards with an 8-pin PCIe power input. Check the GPU power requirements before use. Not compatible with CPU/EPS 8-pin ports

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Would this work for a nvidia gtx 1070 g1 card work?**
A: I used it for 1080ti and it works just fine

**Q: This may seem like a dumb question but which one is the male and female just trying to make sure**
A: Male has the pins sticking out (though there's usually a plastic housing around them) and female has the receptacles for the pins to be inserted into - (just like you'd probably think).

**Q: Can i connect 8pin male end of this adapter to my psu's 8 pin slot and connect my psu's 6pin cable (for sata hdd) to 6 pin female end of this adapter?**
A: No, this cable is for the other way around.  This cable connects the 6-pin cable from your PSU into the 8-pin connector on a video card.  As a side note, a SATA hdd does not use a 6-pin cable.  It has it's own 'SATA' flat cable.

**Q: I just bought a gtx 1070ti buy my evga 650 watt power supply only has two 6 pin conntectors, will this adapter supply enough power to my gpu?**
A: That's its intended purpose. Just make sure that all the rest of your peripherals are not pulling more power than the PSU can supply when you add the card.
