The RX580 card features an 8+6 power connector. My PSU (EVGA 500 GD) uses a single PCIe cable with two 8(6+2) plugs. Is the card suitable for this PSU?

Which RX580 model are you examining? The factory overclocked versions, such as the one from Powercolor, require additional power to achieve the overclock. If it's the base model without overclocks, the listed unit should suffice. Keep in mind the PSU's age and its previous GPU configuration.

It's acceptable. 500 GD shouldn't be more than approximately four years old.

It is a brand new sealed power supply I purchased on June 10, 2022. The graphics card I am considering is the Sapphire Nitro+ RX 580 8G GDDR5 (299-1E366-001SA).

Yes, the PSU requires only the specified PCIE cable with 2 6+2 pin plugs. You should fill in all the connectors on the card, meaning a 6+2 and a 6 pin plug.
