Upgrading gpu !?

[multigame3]

Hi peeps!
I wanted to upgrade from my r7 250 1GB DDR3 xfx core edition to msi r7 250 2-xOC or r7 250 3XOC Toxic, but the problem is my psu has only one 6 pin conector.
MY spec are:
GPU: r7 250 1GB DDR3 xfx core edition
CPU: AMD APU A8-6600K
PSU:Im not sure but its xfx 500W non modular

If you have two extra molex connectors on your PSU, you can use a 2x molex to 6-pin PCIe connector. One will likely come with the new graphics card, but if not, you can always purchase one.

Also, make sure the 12V rail of your PSU provides enough amperage for the new card.

You will be able to use a molex to 6pin adpater which will most likely be included with the card, and I am sure the PSU will be able to power it just fine.

How?

You need to let us know the exact make and model of your PSU. If not, try and see if a label like this is present:

Then take a picture of it and post it here.

Your PSU is likely good enough for the new card, though.

Now that gtx 960 is out i saw it needs only one 6 pin conector an i have only one. Should i buy gtx960 i think it's good investment. IS it???

I for one don't think that the GTX 960 is all that impressive for a $200 card, but that might just be me. It get's decent marks in benchmark fps testing and will perform circles around an R7 card.
