PCIEX68ADAP This PCI Express 6 pin to 8 pin power adapter cable lets you connect a standard 6-pin PCI Express power connection provided by the computer power supply to newer ATI and NVidia video cards that require an 8 pin power connection.

<p>The STARTECH PCI Express 6 Pin to 8 Pin Power Adapter Cable, part number PCIEX68ADAP, facilitates the connection of newer graphics cards or other PCI Express devices requiring an 8-pin power input to an existing power supply unit (PSU) that only offers 6-pin PCI Express power connectors. It addresses compatibility issues where a standard 6-pin PCI Express power connection from the computer&#039;s power supply needs to interface with components designed for an 8-pin input. This solution is practical for managing power delivery in systems where the PSU&#039;s native cabling does not match the requirements of a new component, ensuring proper power supply without system instability.</p>
