GeForce 6800 Power ?
Does GeForce 6800 cards can boot to windows and detect my monitor even if I don't plug the 4 pin molex into ?

nope. pretty sure it will not. Never tried it because I don't like screwing up my cards.

Yes, It will work. The only problem is that it would automatically downclock due to insufficient power.
