Im using a tfx power supply and it has 1 molex connector, 2 sata connector, and 2 4pin pcie connectors (1 for cpu, 1 no use)

My gpu is a 1060 3gb mini card and require 6 pin pcie
Gtx 1060 3gb power consumption is 120 watts, so after getting 75 watt from pcie slot, still need 45 watts


What adaptor should i use to power my gpu? Can i just plug the 4 pin connector into the 6 pin gpu? Or need to use molex-to-6pin adaptor etc?

Rule of thumb:

If it doesn't have the connectors for it, it probably doesn't have the power for it
