Please list the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:
include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard at this moment of time.

Thumb rule with PSU's and PC builds, if your PSU lacks the necessary connectors for your components, you either;
a| have the wrong PSU for the build
or
b| the wrong components for your PSU

We will additionally need to know your location, your preferred budget for your GPU purchase and your preferred site for purchase. One other thing, you won't find the above mentioned GPU's brand new, which is why I'd advise against buying used/second hand GPU's from all those generations ago in 2025.
