GTX280

No, it doesn't. This is one big downside of the XFX model if you don't have a PSU with the 8-pin connector, since the adapters are practically impossible to find individually for sale even though they come with almost all of the other companies' cards. I ended up getting one from someone else on this forum.
 
You want to get the kind with two 6 pin connectors on one end. Not sure if the single 6 pin variety will work. Last I checked, FrozenCPU didn't have those, although that may have changed.

It makes no sense to shell out $80 or more just for that 8 pin plug. There are numerous older PSUs that don't have it but will work perfectly fine with the adapter.
