jwad_Just saw your earlier post. Congrats on getting that Titan X! That's one heck of a card. I'm assuming nothing went wrong during shipping? Anyways I'm pretty sure you should be fine with a 6+2 pin connector an 8 pin slot. There shouldn't be any problems. Have fun with your new card!

Anyways I'm pretty sure you should be fine with a 6+2 pin connector an 8 pin slot. There shouldn't be any problems. Have fun with your new card!Thanks! Fortunately my friend is very tech savvy so it was extremely well insulated, like bubble wrap layers upon layers so that nothing could move, and on top of that the box looks like it was handled well. So I'm pretty sure it hasn't suffered any physical damage but I won't know for sure until at least tomorrow. Figured I'd ask and make sure about this because the rest of my PSU's cables are boxed away from moving and I'd rather not fish through them to swap cables if I don't need to. Hopefully all is well and this card will last long enough.
bob16314A 6+2pin PCIe power connector will function as an 8pin when using the 2pin part, or as a 6pin when leaving the 2pin part hanging..That way, PSUs only need to have 6+2pin cables/connectors to be compatible with both 6pin and 8pin.
