It appears that your power supply has two 8-pin PCI-E connectors, so you don't need that molex to PCI-E adapter.

i cant finmd them on power supply i have ones with 6 and onces with 2

You have the connectors you need...more than enough as your PSU has 4 sets.

You combine the 6+2 for the 8 pin connector and use one of the 6 pin connectors.

As rotndude said, no adapter required.

what power supply do you have?
brand/model

it may not be strong enough if it does not have the correct gpu/pci-e power connectors

http://www.antec.com/pdf/flyers/VP700P_Flyer_EN_20140320.pdf is the exact thing i have and the exact card im buying is above

[_I_]

it has 4x 6+2 pci-e power connectors
use those on the gpu

[Sarjan-7]

so plug in the 6 pin and then plug in a 2 pin next to the 6 pin to equal 8? or just plug in two of the 6 pins to the card

[HEART]

I already explained in post #4. The 8-pin needs 8 pins to ensure your card receives adequate power. 6+2 into the 8 pin and a 6 into the 6 pin.

Why is this so hard to understand?

[Sarjan-7]

the 6+2 i dont get ... so with 6+2 i add the 6 pin and a two pin??? i dont see and 8 pin inside my pc if it is its plugged into my motherboard

[Sarjan-7]

that is what i ment... the 6 pin and the 2 pin... lol

You should have 4 sets of 6+2 coming out of your PSU...enough for 2 cards

[_I_]

on a gpu power connecotr 6 = 3x gnd + 3x 12v
the +2 adds 2 more gound and is not needed, but helpful if its connected

[Sarjan-7]

meh i have no idea what ur on about its simply put for me 6 pin has 6 slots or w/e idc what they mean just if they fit and if they work xD

Click that
Look at the pictures displaying the Connectors

Look at where it says 4x8 (6+2)pin its a 6pin PCI-E connector with a 2pin connector that you connect to the 6pin to make an 8pin. 6+2=8

just find those connectors and you'll have what you need.
