PSU 6pin question

[Biernot]

Im building a new pc, and need to choose between 2 power supplies
I will put a really weak gpu in it, but may upgrade in the future
cheaper psu has 1 6pin pcie, while the other, more expensive one has 2x 6pin pcie.
in the future, will 1x 6pin pcie limit me? is it safe/recommended to use adapters?
or i'm better off spending a little more on a 2x 6pin pcie power supply.

Actually, to future proof your PSU, you want one that has two 6+2-pin PCIe connectors, since many GPU's use 8-pin connectors for power, not just 6-pin. If you think you may do a SLI or crossfire setup later on then you want a PSU with four 6+2-pin PCIe connectors. Adapters are not recommended.
