So I recently bought a new PC and it was quite late while I was building it (so I was pretty tired), and I made a huge mistake by plugging in the 8 pin CPU power cable into the 8 pin PCIe slot in the GPU. There was also a 6 pin PCIe slot as well in the GPU which I plugged a 6 pin PCIe cable into. I tried turning on the PC (not knowing what I did) and nothing happened and to add, there was no smoking nor cracking noises. After realising my mistake, I correctly plugged the CPU cable into the motherboard and the PCIe cable into the GPU. After that, the PC booted fine and there didn’t seem to be any problems.
I’m just worried that I may have caused some significant damage to the GPU or maybe the motherboard and CPU, seeing that the PC works fine, i’d hope I didn’t damage anything.
So long story short, have I caused any damage to my GPU from this mistake?
