You need to plug in both. They didnt waste a bunch of manufacturing costs adding a second plug just for looks.


do you have it or just assuming ...  ive some 480 n+ with only 6pin connector and they working fine for more than 5 months ...
i need someone who has them to confrim it ,, does the gpu works only with 6+2 connected

He's just assuming, I'm running a 7x RX 580 rig right now using ONLY the 6+2


can you post any photos pls
