GTX 970 on 500w psu

[oropls]

Hi guys,
I'll ne getting the GTX970 4G MSI and I'm wondering if I should buy a new PSU. My actual one is from cooler master 500w (http://www.pcmeal.com.au/cooler-master-extreme-500w-active-pfc-power-supply-rs-500-pcar-i3.html). If not how should I connect the gpu because it only have one 6pin pci express and the card need one 6pin and one 8pin connectors.

My actual setup is
MSI GTX 650Ti boost
Intel i7 2700k
8Gb RAM
500w PSU Coolermaster

Thanks for your help.

If this is the issue, I recommend the STRIX 970. I have it and a single 6 pin is ideal for your situation and mine when I was choosing parts, because I also am using my previous PSU.

The MSI GTX 970 Gaming 4G is a great card and it requires a 6-pin and an 8-pin connectors. Your PSU should suffice given it is from a trusted brand and is able to provide the minimum required wattage (500w continuous, I'm guessing)

Thanks for the answer but, how do I manage to get the connectors if I only have one 6-pin in my psu. Should I use adapters ?
