    Question New SFF build not posting! Any suggestions?

    Will my friends PSU be ok for GTX 970

    My friend currently has an R9 280x and is looking to upgrade to an MSI GTX 970. His power supply isn't modular so he doesn't know whether he will have the correct cables to plug it all in (as I think my 970 has an 8-pin and a 6-pin) and he thinks he only has 2 6-pins. The PSU is a Corsair CX600.
