Any issues using a PCI Express power adaptor cable with a 7800 GTX?

I just bought one of these and a 7800GTX. I'm using them with a 20 pin Antec TruePower 550. Is there any issue with that?

Also, I'm using a 20 to 24 pin adaptor for my DFI Ultra. I just want to know if using these two different adaptors on the same machine is a bad thing.

Help is MUCH appreciated.
 
I purchased one from SVC and it clearly did not work. In fact it fried my Antec 430 upon start up. Just check the pinout of the adapter. I contacted SVC on the possibility of them purchasing adapters with incorrect pinouts. They confirmed that they did in fact sell me an adapter with the incorrect pinout, so be careful. However, they would not cover the replacement costs of the Antec 430, pretty nice of them.:disgust::|. Obviously you know what I think of SVC at this point.

Here's my post with links.

Edit: no experience with 7800, just adapter info.
 
Interesting, although I do trust the guys at Performance-PCs, so I shouldn't get an adaptor with the wrong wiring.
