Question Need help with video card

[Tatsumi1959]

Discovered this site by accident seems neat for pc knowledge. Im in need of help with a video card I bought. I have xfx radeon rx 580 and a corsair cs850m power supply. I need a pcie cable to fit both. My brother had me buy a 6+2 pcie but it only fits the video card and not my power supply. Any help is appreciated.

Are you able to take a picture of your PSU? specifically the face of the PSU that has all the connector ends?

Your PSU should already have the 8 pin(6+2), it is a modular unit, do you have any of the cables that came with it? that is where your solution lies.

I do not have the original chords that came with it but I should still be able to buy one. The problem is the pattern on the power supply and video card are not the same so even with the original it still would not fit the video card as I have looked at there site. The pattern for the psu is [ ] ^ ^ [ ] top ^ [ ] [ ] ^ bot gpu pattern [ ] [ ] ^ ^ top ^ ^ ^ [ ] bot
