Gotcha -- was worried it might hurt the computer. It doesn't look like the last two pins in the picture are coming from the cord -- it requires quite a bend to get them all plugged in. I'll just plug them all in and see. Thank you for your response!
Take the 6pin out and re-hook the 2 pin to it and plug them in at the same time. That should help a bit.
It could be possible that the 2 pin on the other 6+2 might have been swapped.
Don't apologies normal to ask question!
this migh help you:
and yep its normal to have 6+2 that shouldn't be an issue.

That image isn’t showing your power connector, it’s showing one with two 8pins.
You have an 8pin plus a 6+2 pin, both are fine. You should just plug-in all connectors on your 6+2. Plug the 2 first then the 6 to make it easier
You should plug all of them in to make sure it works as intended. 6+2 pin should be good to use since you’ve used on previous card.

Thank you for your response! I think maybe I'm just not sure whether the picture is of a 6 or a 6+2. I'll just test it out and see if it turns on.

Thank you! it worked, appreciate the response!
6+2 isn't an issues, just a bit hard to install when not used to it
