  Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.

• It has a 8-pin plug so I would think running a 6 pin connector would not supply enough power.

• In short, no, this requires the pci-e power cable (a 6+2 (not too sure if the 6 will power it alone)) that most likely came with your psu, and plug that cable into the card.
