can i run rx 580 8gb using sata to 8 pin converter

can i run rx 580 8gb using sata to 8 pin converter or using a 6 pin to 8 pin converter.

i have antec 620m hcg psu that ha 10 pin to dual 8 pin pcie cable.

i cannot arrange the cable in my area.

i have options for sata (54watts) to 8 pin or 6 pin (75watts) to 8 pin.

should i go any of them?

I personally used a PSU PCIe 6 Pin to 8 Pin adapter cable for my GPU card. It worked without any issues.

I imagine if the SATA to 8 Pin cable adapter is made for a GPU Power connection then that should work also unless it doesn't supply enough power to the GPU card.

But personally I would use the 6 pin to 8 Pin cable adapter.
