Connect gtx 560

[reaply]

Hello,
I just got the geforce 560 non ti version. I am trying to figure out the cables (I am not that experienced with the power supply cables.) There is two six pins, which to my knowledge both need to be plugged in for full power. What is a PSU that is compatible with this graphics card for sure? And would my motherboard be an issue with the power supply?

A quality 450watt will run it no problem, motherboard should not be an issue.

You also need a pcie x16 slot!

My power supply did not have the right cables (450watt) some wire I think called molex? I am buying a new psu.

You don't need to, all you need to get is a molex to pcie adapter and it should run fine. Also your card should have came with one.

It came with 6 pins with a molex to connect to the power supply, but nothing would go to the molex.

Also the card its self needs 500 watt min, I have a 450. So if it's a 500 watt min I still need more watts to power everything else.
