Psu and graphic card problem

[parikh]

I am planning to buy intel i5 4590, gigabyte h81m s1 motherboard, nvidia 650 graphic card, corsair vs550 Watt psu.

I just found out that vs550 has Four Pin Peripheral Connector quantity - 4
PCI Connector- 2.
And as much I aware I think nvidia 650 graphic card require 6 pin connector.
Are they compatible with each other ?
If not please suggest some other psu in the same price bracket of vs550.

Thanks in advance.

The different connectors are rated for different load capacilties:

Here is a very good explanation of why the plugs have different number of pins:

I do notice something very strange in your planned components. That motherboard is a much older chipset. Have you considered getting a mobo with a more recent H79 chipset? The GPU is woefully under-powered to give you a balanced configuration also.

I finally figured it out! I think you misread the specifications for your Corsair. http://www.corsair.com/en-us/vs-seriestm-vs550-550-watt-power-supply

The 4-pin connectors are Molex connectors. Inn addition to the 4 x 4 pin SATA, it also has 2x 6-pin connectors for PCI - that is sufficient, since your card needs only one.

You should be OK.
