Question Need help with new Graphics Card

[That_Corvid613]

I’ve recently gotten a new graphics card to run better games as i realised my last one wasnt good, i’ve found out this graphics card has a 8 pin PCIe port but i cant find the power cable anywhere, my graphics card currently is a GeForce GTX 1660 Super and i just wanted to see if i need to buy an 8 pin PCIe cable as i cant find one anywhere inside my pc and if i do, where do i put it? Videos are greatly appreciated

I also have a new processor and motherboard coming soon as im upgrading to DDR4 for better performance and so i can use my 8x8 ( 16gb ) RAM

Brand and model of your PSU? List of the rest of parts would be nice too.

 

[That_Corvid613]

my PSU is a Cronus 500W 80 plus bronze

and my other parts are 4x4 ( 8gb ) DDR3 RAM, Intel Core i5-4440 CPU @ 3.10GHz, KINGSTON KINGSTON SA400S37240G with a gigabyte ga-h81m-ds2v motherboard

Cronus 500W 80 plus bronze

This one?

 

[That_Corvid613]

Yes exactly that one

 

[That_Corvid613]

Do you also want the parts im getting? Like my new motherboard and processor?

It says that power supply has two 6+2 connectors.

A 6+2 connector combines physically to make an 8 pin connector. You literally have to squeeze them together while you insert it.

Well, all the data I have suggests it has two PCIe connectors (most likely on single cable). And since it is not modular they are connected for sure. Just search better.

 

[That_Corvid613]

I’ll have to do some searching then because i cant find them, perhaps whoever made this pc didnt make them visible

 

[DRagor]

Very likely. Usually you hide all unused cables so inside of case looks better.
