does new 280GTX come with 8P cable?

[lukx]

I got seasonic M12 700W PSU I hope it will be enough for new geforce 280 GTX but I got only 6P cables. Do I have to buy new PSU just because of that or the new geforce come with 8P cable or come converter?

Depends on the manufacturer, look at the pictures on Newegg.

The 8 pin adapter is only a *temporary fix* if your pus doesn't have one.

what does it mean?

No, it's fine as a long term fix since it only adds two ground cables and even in PSUs that have them it's usually just a 6 +2. You can buy one from performance-PCs or some such if your card doesn't come with one.
