No. I don't want to return to GPU 'cause that best cheapest GPU on in used market of my country. I've only found GTX 760 in same price. Is that means i should get new PSU?
CPU: Intel Xeon X5450 3.60 GHz OCWhat's the PSU model? .... plugging a 8+6 won't work. If the PSU doesn't have the connectors it's probably a good time to change it.
Also, don't use adapters.
EDIT: Post the whole build.

I've asker seller and he told me he tried 8+6 and it didn't give display and tried 8+8 it worked properly. Thanks for help. I think i need 8 Pin Adapter. PSU that i have: SilverStone 700W 80+ Bronze (i don't know model number).What's the exact PSU? If the GPU requires two 8-pin connectors, you have to use two 8-pin connectors; powering a GPU correctly is a requirement, not a suggestion.
That this PSU doesn't have two 6+2 pin PCIE connectors is extremely concerning; this GPU goes well over 250W and if you want to run it, it's not something you pair with a low-quality power supply, even if it is an older GPU at this point. The 280x and the 7970 it was based off of were extremely power hungry GPUs.

Do you have the option to return the GPU?

I was aimed performance and VRAM. I wasn't think much about the Power requirements. GTX 760 running RDR2 1600X900 low with 35-40 FPS and R9 280X runs 1920x1080 medium-high with the same FPS. That's why i bought R9 280X.You'll need a new PSU if you really don't have two 6+2 pin connectors. This is why you find 280x GPUs cheap; a PSU to safely power a 280x is going to cost in the $70 range at a minimum and that's at US prices which tend to be better. This isn't a GPU that you can just slap in a junk PSU that has two 6+2 pin connectors either; again, this is a notoriously power-hungry GPU.
It's only the cheapest GPU in the used market of your country if you already have a PSU that can safely handle it. If you don't have the connectors, then you don't have a PSU that can safely handle it.
Frankly, the GTX 760 is a much better option. A 280x is only about 20% faster and once you count the money you paid for the GPU and a proper PSU, you're probably going to pay at least double what the 760 costs. A 760 uses about 100 less watts than a 280x, so you won't see two 6+2 pin connectors required.
