Only plugging 1 out of 2 6-pin pci-e power connectors?

I got a Radeon HD 4670 and it looks like i can plug in 2 6 pin pci-e power connectors into it. I have only 1 6 pin pci-e power connector, would it work if i just plug one in?

Update:

Although there are power connectors, it is only optional for the card

    The HD4670s do not require external power. They only require the power that the PCI-E slot provides.

    I haven't heard of an HD4670 that has PCI-E power ports on them, but I doubt they are needed. If you are sure that they are optional, you don't need them.

    I hope this helps!

    your answer is to purchase a sparkling ability grant. now no longer simply by shortcoming of a connector, yet you're approximately to make an fantastically large mistake by ability of utilising attempting to ability one among those large card such as your straight forward-weight ability grant . you like around 550W to run your rig solid.

    Yes, but it might not run on its full clock speed.
