Hi all,
I have an odd question:
Does the above mentioned video card need an auxiliary power connector or
does it just use the pci express slot?

I know it sounds strange, if I ask it after installing it, but I need to
know it...I don't remember having seen any auxiliary power connector and
while reading the instructions sheet tonight I was unable to understand
this...it is too generic.

Tia,
Stefano

If there's a socket on it that looks like it takes a connector the same
as plugs into your HDD, then yes. Also the first time you try to run a
3D game, it'll tell you.

It does NOT have an external power connector. The PCI-E slot has enough
power for this card.

Thank you.

check...
