That means there is NO need for 8 pin PCI-E connector?

If overclock then:
If there is a 2x 6 pin to 8 pin in the package? that would be 150W combined + 75W another 6 pin connector + 75W from the PCI-E slot = 300W . Then O/C should be a breeze

Someone correct me if I am wrong, thanks
It would add PLENTY of room to the OC capibilites without overdrawing power from the connectors. In other words even though the card runs warm, it opens a world of opertunities for power to the card.
