8pin cord needed?

[stoicv2]

What cord do I need for my GTX1080 8GB MSI, so it hooks up with my 1000W Supernova power supply. (MB: Sabertooth 990FX) I only have a 8pin to a 6pin VGA but I don't think I have a 6pin VGA slot.

If you're talking about the 6-pin and 8-pin headers on the gfx card, your PSU should have the necessary cables/connectors (6x 8pin (6+2) and 2x 6pin) for any card. Is this your card?

I have the black and red MSI one, but yeah pretty much. My graphics card turns on and the LED'S show, but the fans dont spin and I have a black screen.

Do you have both the 8-pin and 6-pin headers connected?
Monitor plugged into the card and not the on-board video?

I have the 6pin connected right now but all the other 8pins I try will not work on my power supply cause they are mostly 8 to 6pin (VGA) to 2 pins.

When I go to put the 6 pins in the bottom 3 that are not being used the clip at the bottom bends up. And yes I am puting the top clip into the hole.

Link me to the exact card you have, if the one I linked to was incorrect.

My only real problem is that the AVG cord bends every time I attempt to put it in my power supply. (In the bottom three slots) (The clip at the top of it bends)

Are you plugging the correct end of the cable into the PSU? The 8-pin end goes to the PSU; the 6+2 pin end goes to the card. There's no reason it shouldn't fit perfectly unless you have the wrong cable.
