hey all,
So I'm buying a 760 on eBay and I've opened up my pc to find something quite strange. The variant of the 760 I am buying requires two 6 pin connectors, but I only have one four pin connector which looks exactly like a 6 pin but only with four

Any advice on what I can do? An adaptor maybe? Appreciate any help
Cheers.

Your title says 970, but you talk about a 760 in the thread. What do you have? What are you buying? What PSU do you have?

If you are buying a GPU that needs two PCIe plugs and you only have one, you need a PSU upgrade as well.

Why did you mention a GTX 970 in the title, but a GTX 760 in your post?

There is no 4-pin that you can use for a GPU.

What PSU do you have? If it does not have the proper connectors, then you will need an adequate PSU that does have the proper connectors.

Either that, or you need a different GPU that doesn't require as much power.
