So I recently ordered a GTX 770 online and I found out that it needs 1-6 pin PCI-E and 1-8 pin but I think my PSU only has 1-6 pin it's a 650w PSU whitch I think is enough for a one GTX 770 I don't know if the graphics card will work with my PSU because it don't have a 8 pin my PSU is a Ace BR Black 650w power supply link to it here "http://www.cclonline.com/product/81279/A-650BR/Power-Supplies/Ace-650W-BR-Black-PSU/PSU0350/" any help will be much appreciated.

It sure will, 650w psu is more than enough and is good for upgrading things in the future
But if the gpu requires a 8 pin connector and you only have a 6 pin it will not work!
This is because the psu wont be giving the gpu enough power to run

A good power supply that could run it is a
Corsair CX600M or CX600 depends if you want modular or not

Or the one I use a EVGA 750W SUPER NOVA G2

That adapter is a perfect choice. All you have to is add the 2 pin connectors with the 6 just like this

and it will work perfectly

Hope this helps :)
