Well it has two sets of the 2 by 6 pins. The website you showed says I need a 6 and an 8. I also ordered another psu. 700 w smart thermaltake 80 plus white. Here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B014W3EAX8?ref=ppx_pt2_mob_b_prod_image . Not sure if it has 8pin or not.
If you mean the RX 5700 XT from AMD then theoretically it should work but do not remember if the 460W PSU has a 8pin connector as the RX 5700 XT has a TDP of 225W. Please check if your PSU has an 8pin PCIe connector if not then you would need to buy one.

I recently put in a Seasonic Focus Plus 850 W Platinum without any major problems. There were 2 things I encountered 1) next to the Pcie slot is an 8/4 connector that’s labeled CPU/GFX. luckily the Seasonic came with several breakaway cables 6+2, 4+4, etc. So I didn’t have a problem having a cable to match; and 2) my mini bd player has only a mini sized sata that fits. And that’s NOT in the Seasonic box. But (simply) I bought a power jack/mini sata combo from Amazon. You just plug the mini into the bd player and the normal sized cables in the other end.
All worked the first time (although wire dressing is a mess with all those netted/heat shrunk cables).
In case you have a bd/dvd and want to change out the PSU, the mini power/sata cable is here:
