[SOLVED] Gtx 1070 cables

[Jackie23]

I bought a gtx 1070 (will get exact model if needed). But I can't seem to find the 2x 4pin or 8 pin. Do all cases and power supplies have extras for a graphics card? I am not exactly sure what they are supposed to look like, but I have a pretty good feeling that they look like psu power supply cables.

you mean you can find the cable from your psu?
what the make and model of the psu?

honestly not sure, I know for a fact it is pretty old. I am pretty sure it just doesn't have the cord. Im either gonna invest into a better psu or return the gtx 1070.

If it is a generic old PSU, then it wont run it. You can get a new decent 550-650 Watt PSU pretty cheap such as the Corsair CX or CX-M series.

Newegg has a deal on the better Corsair TX-M 550 for 79 USD which is a very good deal


Pretty much any higher end card is going to require a new PSU for cables and just for its power requirements.

Thanks so much. If I can return I will, but if not I am definitely gonna save it til i get a new psu
