You should probably purchase a Seasonic or corsair PSU, hooking the cables back up is incredibly easy; it's not that hard you can do it. If you run into trouble you can start a new...



as you say enough pressure meaning it wont go in easy which should really be saying you cant but a idiot will
 

Speaking from experience here in working IT, you'd be surprised at how many people (Idiots or not) are capable of doing things that are completely idiotic. "OH IT DOESN'T FIT? How about I file off that plastic bit there and make it work! Looks like it'd be just fine!"
 


lol plain and simple if it dose not fit it dose not go in there unless you know it is and you just look at the plug and pins and where your putting it into and try another one of the same cable

i know i had a few cables that were not fitting but eventually fit and that i know they go there
 

Believe me, some people just have to do things the hard way and consequently find out how expensive the "hard way" is :na:
 


Have you considered just replacing the psu?
OCZ modstream x may be of iffy quality anyway.
P graphics card that needs two 6 pin connectors can usually be satisfied with a quality 500W psu.
 


ive thought of it but i dont have the know how to re hook everything back up, id prefer to get the cables i need and be done with it. ive made a question on the support fourm to see if i can get any help

You will probably not want to spend a lot, you could always try to get the cables from the original owner or purchase a new PSU such as this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151094 it's cheap and from a good PSU company.

ok i have my graphics card hooked up. i have a amd phenom ll X2 550 as a cpu currently and i have a http://www.amazon.com/AMD-Phenom-3-4Ghz-512KB-4000MHZ/d... cpu on the way. im wondering is my cpu bottlenecking my gpu that bad thats its limiting my game to 50 fps? im playing mx simulator when i play on high graphics its at 50 and when i play on lowest possible graphics its still at 50 fps. before i would be a 125 fps average on high graphics. and will the cpu i have on the way bottleneck my gtx 670? when im playing it also i can ride around at normal speed and then its like i go into a little slow motion and then i go to normal speed again when playing and its a little jumpy as wel
 


Your question should be posted in a new thread as it has nothing to do with the original post.

 


i made one but havent gotten a reply in about 40 minuts. and id rather just ask here cause it has to do with a graphics card. but could i have a answer
 


Can you give me a link to the other thread? This thread should be closed, please pick a best solution. One problem per thread please.
