Hi everyone I would like asking for your help,
I bought an RTX 3060 zotac and that need 8 pin, but my power supply (Thermaltake Smart BX1 80 Plus bronze had an Pci-e 6pin+2pin) can I use Pci-e 6pin+2pin to conect on 8pin of the RTX 3060?

Sorry for that dumb question I noob in hardware.

Yes, the 6+2pin is designed for that. It's split so that it can be used with either 6-pin or 8-pin GPUs.

Yes you can. What I don't like is that it's a crappy groupregulated unit. Not suitable for any system with a dedicated GPU from the last decade. You bought it new recently?

My power supply has about maybe 4 years. I bought today the gpu in a discount offer.
