Hi I recently grab rx 580 for $80, but when I got it soon I realize it wasn't compatible with my psu and due to low stock I can't get any psu from local store.
The thing is the rx 580 needs 8 pin but i only got 6pin and 2x4pins that can be attached together to make 8pins, but it cud not fit to my gpu due to the shapes of the pins. can someone help me what should i do? i need to try my rx 580 if it is working before the 1 week shipping return expires.
 
Solution
2x4 pins is for CPU, not GPU. If you only have 6 pin, chances are your PSU is not good enough. Usually it is just not worth the risk. What is it anyway?
