Hello, welcome to the community! Thank you for sharing your experience and the tips you’ve found helpful. You mentioned purchasing an RX 580 Nitro with 8GB RAM and using an 8+6 pin power supply. Initially, connecting only the 6-pin connector didn’t work, but once you connected the 8-pin connector it functioned properly. However, you’re concerned about the risks of using a 6-pin connection versus the 8-pin one. Is switching to the 6-pin setup still safe for your GPU?
