Hello everyone, I'm doing some box cleaning and I found a bunch of cables which I'll ask for your help for identification, if you don't mind 🙃

So, as the title says, how do you call this cable?

Thank you!

No, the manufacturers haven't standardized the pinout of physically connectible 6-pin and 8-pin connectors. Look at other comments like this one.

Oh yea, don't mix and match PSU cables, that's pretty common knowledge, just use the cables that come with the PSU and you're fine though. The adapter on the picture used to be pretty common and came with the PSU before modular PSUs became the norm though, not really used anymore from what I have seen.
