it should be enough power, and yes a 6+2 pin*is* an 8 pin.

Let's ask nVidia

Thermal and Power Specs:

94 = Maximum GPU Temperature (in C)
180 W = Graphics Card Power (W)
500 W = Recommended System Power (W)4
8-Pin = Supplementary Power Connector

and Guru3d

Here is Guru3D's power supply recommendation:

GeForce GTX 1080 - On your average system the card we recommend a 600 Watts power supply unit.
GeForce GTX 1080 SLI - On your average system the cards we recommend a 800 Watts power supply unit.

If you are going to overclock your GPU or processor, then we do recommend you purchase something with some more stamina.

The 530P is made by HEC for Thermaltake and it's not an OEM I'd feel comfortable with in a enthusiast's gaming build
