[SOLVED] Can I just put 2 6 pin PCI-E in my 2080 Super

[boysharkdk]

Hello, I just bought a used 2080 Super and I know it uses a 6 pin PCI-E and a 8 Pin PCI-E or 6+2. but my current PSU only has 6 pin PCI-e Can I just put 2, 6 Pin PCI-E in my 2080 until I get my new PSU with 2+6 Pin?

no you can't. the card has those inputs because it needs the power. it should not even boot like that, but if for some miracle it does, it will likely crash the pc as soon as it is asked to do anything.

hold off until you get that new psu or return it for something you can run with your psu.

Hehehe... How much did you pay for that 2080 Super? I ask because I'm wondering how much you're willing to lose over a lack of patience.

What exact psu do you have? Not having the correct connectors is a strong indication it is not adequate.

An old low quality psu, I certainly wouldn’t risk a 2080S on it.
