6 Pin Slot Connector
My question is can I just plug the 8 pin PCI-E connector into the 6 pin slot on the HD5870 as there looks to be space between the sockets for the two redundant pins? I do have another three 6 pin PCI-E connectors (as well as another 8 pin connector too) tied between my motherboard and case side but I was hoping to avoid having to remove that. PCI Express 98 Pin Connector Clamp Right Side Type(Single Harpoon) PCI Express Connector Strip Form Pin Straddle(With Flange type) PCI Express Connector(Ptastic Posts) Strip Form Pin: Slim PCI Connectors: Slim PCI Connectors 64Bit 3.3V & 5.0V: Low Profile Version (Tow Bay) 0.050 High-Density Card Edge Connector: PCI EXPRESS 036 064 098 164 PIN. An HDMI type A male connector measures 13.9mm × 4.45mm, while the equivalent female sockets are fractionally larger at 14mm × 4.55mm. Like both the mini and micro versions of HDMI (types C and D respectively), type A is a 19-pin connector designed to carry audio-video signals ranging in bandwidth from standard definition (SDTV) through to 4k UHD.

Seasonic Focus Plus Gold/Platinum 650W also has only one 4+4pin cable, to have two 4+4pin cables you need to buy at least a 750W PSU. The same goes for be quiet! Straight Power 11 - 650W has one 4+4pin cable, 750W has one 'P8' (8pin I suppose) and one 'P4+4' connector.
At the same time, all the better motherboards (AsRock X470 Taichi, ASUS Crosshair VI Hero etc.) have one 8pin connector AND one 4pin connector to supply a CPU. Which means with a 650W PSU (or even a Corsair RM750i) you're able to use only the 8pin connector, because your PSU only has one, leaving the 4pin connector on your motherboard not used.
What's the deal with that? If the second (4pin) 12V connector wasn't needed at all - they wouldn't add it to the motherboards, right? And to plug both 8pin and 4pin connectors I need to buy either a Corsair RM850i (since even the 750W one has only one 12V connector) or at least a 750W PSU from some other manufacturer.
