Why does the description call for 2 6pin when it is 6 + 8 pin connectors

For the power supply side of it, for modular power supplies. So the cables would be two 6pin(PSU) to 6+2pin(GPU).

I always go to the manufacture's website to verify specs before buying. Their site says, "Power requirement 600W (with one 6-pin and one 8-pin external power connectors)." Why Amazon's product copy is different I can't say.

It's right there in the description for the product: one port 1A maximum and the other port 2.4A maximum with blue LED indicator. So it means you've plugged a cable into the port with the 2.4A maximum. They're labeled right above each port which is which.

With a 4 to 6 pin adapter it should work just fine, but it's hard to make a guarantee.

That is correct. The 6ANS in the product number stands for "6 amp neutral switch". This is a switch that requires a neutral.

You can buy it for a 8 pin or a 30 pin connection.... just click the appropriate box. Either way, I wouldn't waste your money....I ended up throwing mine away because of very poor sound (sounded like the speakers were blown)

The card needs two 6 pin connectors. It has converters (8 pin to 6 pin) if needed.

If I'm not mistaken this power supply has two 4 pin connectors, so you should be fine. The 6 pin is for a graphics card. If you would like I can pull mine and take an inventory of the cables it has.

I ordered this card about a week ago and received a Rev 1 unit with 6+8 pin power, no idea if Amazon is even shipping rev 2 units yet.

Don't know, there are 5 pins in the connector and not all manufacturers wire those pins (only 2 are needed) the same. Best route to get your question answered would be to call the vendor directly to field your question. Problems? Call 706.935.0065 and ask for Angela.

It will actually work on both 2 or 3 pin. I have a three pin, and it works great

I don't remember plugging in any 6 pin plugs. At lease the one I put in did not require one.

It's a standard 4-pin connector. It is the flat connector, as opposed to the 7-pin round style.

Technically you are correct. The 2nd letter denotes how many pins are used. The name just stuck from days of old.

6+2's have a downside of being unstable when you start to get into higher power draws, it's always better to have individual 6 pin connectors from your PSU to make sure you are able to get sufficient amp draw that your card will need.

I use two 8-pin cords but they both split and end in a 6 and a 2. I don't know if this is standard for everyone, but I just leave the extra two dangling more or less and it works fine. They're the same cords I used with my 6970 before I upgraded.

Philip is correct. Your need an additional 6 pin outlet from your power supply

there are 4 pin to 8 pin connectors that come with it, but yes you need 2 8 pins...you could also get the 6 pin to 8 pin on amazon if you'd like but i run mine with what came with it (4 to 8)
