Question RTX 2080 Ventus 8GB PSU issue

[Kvp311]

Hello. I have bought an MSI RTX 2080 Ventus 8GB which has two female ports, one for 6 pins and one for 8 pins . My psu is a Logisys AT650BK and only has a 6+2 pin header for the GPU. Will I be okay with just the 8 pins? Please help kind people

As RGD has stated, firstly you don't want to use a PSU that doesn't have the right connections.

Secondly I wouldn't touch that PSU with a barge pole, less you want it to pop and take out your 2080.
Unfortunately this happens with poor quality PSUs.

You need a new PSU, your current unit is low end junk to the point it poses a danger to the system.

Thank you for your help friend. I have decided to follow your advice and want to get a Corsair TX850 Bronze 80+ . Will it be enough?

That's quite an old model that hasn't been in production for years. So I wouldn't suggest it.

Hm. I found a listing online, but would you think a Rosewill Hive 1000s would be better?

No, what's your budget?
This one is a very good one:

Thank you so much for your help. My budget is anywhere under 100$, as I already spent way too much on this GPU and monitor. I am very much lost because half the PSU's I find are either old, or only utilize 8 Pin connectors when I need a 6 and 8. Do you think the 650W you recommended would suffice for my GPU? Thank you!

Yes its a quality 650W so its plenty, it will even run a 2080 Ti.
