PSU For GTX 280 - Page 2

Yeah, I just checked, I didn't see one.

New versions of this PSU have one 6 pin and one 6+2pin connector, but it just looked like 2 standard 6 pin connectors on mine.

I bought it along with my eVGA GTX280 SSC and it runs it beautifully. Not bad for $100 after MIR of $20.

I see thats showing PCI-E connectors as 6+2. Is that the same as 8pin? Also, my mobo is not saying it has PCI-E 2. Does that make a big difference??

Yep, same thing. The last two pins are seperate so it can be used both on 6 and 8 pin connections...

6+2 can be used as 6 pin or 8 pin, the two extra are separate. Like this:
