I bought a GPU second-hand, and it requires "two 6-pin external power connectors "

Will standard modular PSUs come with these cables? or is it supposed to come with the GPU? The GPU hasn't arrived yet so I wouldn't know

Can someone link me to these "two 6-pin external power connectors"?

The only ones I could find are these and I am not sure if these are what I need: https://www.pbtech.co.nz/product/SE...yI4-Z1sAgRvmIGsK63qtN3UyPsI-H4MAaAtbKEALw_wcB

The GPU is:

This is my PSU... can someone see if they can identify if the required cables (the two 6-pin external connectors) are on the picture??? THANK U

Most standard modular PSU should come with PCI E connectors.
cables comes with PSU.

PSU has 2 6 +2 pin connectors, the way they work is if you only need 6 pin, you leave the extra 2 pin part unplugged

https://www.enermax.com/en/products/revolution-d.f.-650w

according to that, your motherboard has 2 of them. you may not need to buy the extra cables.

the manual for that PSU isn't very helpful but it at least shows that the cables can be used in 8 pin or 6 pin mode, you plug all 8 into PSU and only 6 into GPU. You can download it on site above.
