Pcgamer2016,

Does your power supply have a single 6 pin? Then get these, they may not look fancy but they'll do the job. You also will save on a lot of money.

Thanks bud. I bit the bullet late last night and bought a new PSU. To be honest I've got a cheap one atm and all over this site they warn of cheap PSU's so I went with an EVGA one that caters for the new graphics cards. God forbid that I end up blowing up the bloody thing!

Haha, no problem. Just make sure it's 80+ bronze and up. I personally have the EVGA GQ 650W Gold+ and it runs like a champ. I personally though, if I had my old non-modular power supply which had only one six pin and were getting a grahpics card with 2 6 pins, I wold get what I listed.
