I have this FSP 650w 80+ Bronze PSU. I use it with an RX 570 which only needs a single 6-pin.
I wanted to upgrade the GPU to maybe a 1080 Ti but that needs a 6-pin and an 8-pin.

Here's a picture of the specs. I have 4 extra molex connectors and an extra CPU 4-pin. Should i use a molex to 6-pin or 8-pin connector if I want to get a 1080 Ti?
 
Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

Thumb rule, if your PSU lacks the necessary connectors for your components in your build you either have;
a| the wrong PSU for the job
or
b| the wrong components for your build.

If you look around the www, you'll see that the main cause of fires are adapters. How old is your PSU anyway?

I have this FSP 650w 80+ Bronze PSU.
FYI, that PSU is 600W at most, not 650W.

Looking a the mechanical drawings, you should be having a 6+2pin connector stemming from the PSU, labelled P4 on the harness connector;

which would lead me to suggest looking at GPU's that need a single 8pin connector.
