    Hello. I have a stupid problem. I have a 600W power supply from the cooler master company (I don't remember the exact model because it's quite old) and I'm going to buy a gtx 1070ti. However, this graphics card needs 8 PCI-E pins from what I read, and my power supply only has 2 x 6 PCI-E pins. I don't know what to do with it. Some special plug 2 6 pin inputs and 8 pin output. I certainly do not want to connect the card only on 6 pins. I've seen some graphics cards work like that, but I don't want to test mine.

    Surely you do not have an 8pin one, how do you have a 2x6pin pcie?

    There are transitions to the Allegro for sure. I do not know if it is worth worrying about how the card works because each adapter is a waste.

    Well, unfortunately I do not even have 1 eight (if it would be useful, I attach a photo of the ports in my power supply) GTX 1070ti Power Supply Query: 600W Cooler Master with 2x6 PCIE-E Pins vs Required 8 Pins )

    And if the card will not work weaker on 6 pins, it is less current. Each pin probably has its own limitations as to the transmission of current.

    I have one more idea because there are 6 + 2 plugs. So separate pins connected to the card work. If you were to connect these two 6 to the card and just 4 pins would be free (not connected, they would stick out to the side). Will it work and is it even possible?

    On the other hand, you don't have 6 + 2 pins of one wire?

    Rather, the entire nest is connected rather than broken into lines. There would have to be a mega mic for 6pin boots not to work. Of course, the more wires the better, but usually these additional two pins are pulled right at the end of this 6-pin graphic cable, so that's a piece of art.

    I do not know if you will be able to hook it up because the sockets are profiled, which would not plug in separately.

    edit
    What is this Coolermaster model? Because it matters whether it has one 12V line or more.

    This is probably the one. Maybe you can get something more out of the specification.

    PCI-E 6 + 2 Pin x2
    Well, are the connectors to the side are 8-pin or not? :)

    I myself do not understand. There in the photo in the lower left corner there is 6 PCI-E pin written, and in the specification that 6 + 2. I will also give a picture of the side of my power supply, where the model is saved. Because maybe it is another power supply.

    But so far it comes out that if I buy a cable that has an input (to the power supply) 6 pin PCI-E and an output (to the graphics card) 6 + 2 pin PCI-E and then I plug it all in, it should work like this?

    Take this cable in hand with pcie and on the other side it should have 6 + 2 pins, not 6 pins. You have this power supply, probably you can do it?

    I wrote that these 6 + 2 pins are such art for art because 6 pins are going anyway and then additional 2 pins are split from these 6 pins at the end of the cable.

    You're right. In fact, there are these two extra pins on the other end, thank you so much for your help and sorry for the confusion

    An oversight on my part. From the beginning, the cable had a 6 + 2 PCIE-E connector

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around a user's concern regarding the compatibility of a 600W Cooler Master power supply with a GTX 1070 Ti graphics card, which requires an 8-pin PCI-E power connector. The user has only 2 x 6-pin PCI-E connectors available and seeks advice on how to connect the graphics card without risking damage. Responses suggest that using a cable with a 6-pin input and a 6+2-pin output is a viable solution, as the additional 2 pins can be utilized to meet the card's requirements. Clarifications about the power supply model and its specifications are also provided, confirming that the necessary connectors are indeed available.
