Power supply has 2-pin, 6-pin and 8-pin connectors, board wants 4-pin. Which one is right?

I bought a new power supply which has additional power connectors. There is 6-pin connector (3x2) which is labeled "pcie". There is another 2-pin connector which can be attached to the 6-pin and there is a 8-pin (4x2) which is unlabled and can be split into two 2x2. My old power supply only had a 2x2 and my board needs a 2x2.

"You split the 4x2 connector and use that for the 4-pin motherboard 12v socket. Some new motherboards have a 4x2 connector or 2 2x2 connectors.

Looking around it seems that your gfx-card does not need the pcie 6pin connector. Many of the ""higher end"" cards need this to get enough power. I suspect that the black screen you're seeing is because you haven't connected the 12v motherboard connector."
