I recently ordered a GTX 650. Unlike my previous card (Radeon HD 4670, I know I'm cheap), this one requires a 6pin connection to the PSU, rather than just getting it's power from the PCI-E slot.
I ordered a molex to PCI-E power cable which hasn't arrived yet so I haven't gotten to see if it works or not. I'm concerned it may not.
I also noticed my PSU's 12v rail runs at 18 amps while the EVGA specs page recommends 20 amps.
I'm concerned about performance dips (or even it flat out not working) due to how I'm having to use a molex converter along with lacking the recommended amps. My previous video card didn't require either of these things. How much will this matter?
