I have a Corsair HX Series CMPSU-620HX 620W Power Supply and a EVGA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti. The PSU only has 6 pin connectors. Can I still power this card?
 
Solution
Some cards can be powered by a single 6pin if it has a 8 pin slot, I've had a couple work just fine that way, if it boots with the 6pin, you should be fine, the 3060ti don't really need an 8 pin, if it does not boot with the 6 pin, you will probably need a 8pin, you can adapt it, or buy the cables for it from Corsair or Cable mod.
