I recently got a hand me down machine and decided to upgrade the graphic card.

The machine did not come with any power cables.

Which PCI power cables do I need to pick up to make this work?

Solution
The power connectors that you need are already on your PSU.
According to the specs, you should have 4 x PCIe power connectors and they should all be of the 6+2-pin variety.
Your graphics card requires an 8-pin and a 6-pin connector, so you will use one lead of your modular cables and plug the one 6+2-pin connector and the other 6-pin connector into the card.
