After browsing the interwebnet, I found something that leads me to believe it is what I think it is, and that's this:

an adapter to turn the 8 pin aux server board plug into a 6 pin PCI-E video connectorSo yeah, http://forums.tabit.net/images/smilies/new/rock.gif.

Talk about shitty timing, though; I just bought an Apevia adapter off newegg for my ($200!) x1950xt. Heh. I guess I won't need to buy one if I want to dedicate an old x1800xt for physics or something. (c:
