So I just got my gtx580 in and have a question about the power connectors. I have a Corsair HX850 which comes with 2 pci-2 6+2 pin connectors. Now my question comes with a diagram the card came with showing the proper 6pin connector

Now i lack a lot of knowledge when it comes to power connectors, but diagram shows that the 6pin connector is missing one pin. The two connectors that my PSU supplied have all 6 pins. I have two adapters that came with the card.

Obviously I dont want to go ahead and use the supplied 6+2 pin cable my psu supplied if it could harm my card. Should I be using the molex adpater with the 6pin cable? BTW sorry for the horrible picture quality and size, my phone's camera is junk
