Hi,
I have Sapphire R9 270X Dual X which requires 2 75W 6 pin connectors.
I want to buy Seasonic S12II 520W PSU. It has one 6 pin connector and one 6/8 connector, What does it mean??
Will it work?

It will surely work work, Don't worry.

It might sound silly question, but just out of curiosity, i am asking.
It needs two 75w 6 pin connectors. This psu has one 6p connector and one 8p (6+2). Can I use 6pins of 8p (I have heard its detachable kind)??
One more question 8pin can draw 150W, but my req is 75W. Will it be safe to do so?

you can use the 6 pin from the given 8 pin by detaching the two pins. also the power draw depends on the gpu load.
