The pcie cables are 6+2 pin effectvley 8 pin you definately have them the 850w rmx has 6 in total, usually 2 per cable.

4.05 mins in he pulls out the power cable from gpu, so get to see what you're looking for. I have the rm1000x new version but cables look the same. I can take a photo in morning of a spare one if you like

Should have some cables like below. You need 2 sets, don't use the daisychain. So each cable plugs in the back of the psu, then other end each plugs into 1 side of the adaptor that came with the gpu(and put the 2pin next to the 6 pin and slide into the adaptor). I used a strap just to bring them together a bit. Hope that helps

Craig D1, please push those 2 pin connectors on the 6+2 connectors in all the way.
