Hi Hardforum,
So recently you guys helped me pick a new video card. I also spiced things up with a new monitor (thanks!)
Quick question about powering the thing up (card is listed in my sig). The card has an 8 pin input, but for whatever reason, my power supply seems to have only a 6 pin input (that fits) plus a 2x1 pair kind of dangling from it (insert immature joke here). The last 2 x 1 can't be pushed in all the way. I was really confused, but tried to boot up with just the 6 pin plugged in, and the card works fine. Or so it seems? Is this going to botch my card?
