Hello everyone,

I'm part way through putting together my first build and I've come across a stumbling block.

My GFX card has two connectors on the back (Think they're PCI Express connections) which I'm guessing power the fan on the card? They're are two side by side and you can see them here (they're the black ports at the back of the picture side by side) :

I have this power supply:

As far I can tell I only have one cable to power this, the red ended one.

Can anyone enlighten me? Thanks so much everyone!
 
They provide extra power for the card, not the fan :)

When you've got it up and running, can you report back how loud it is? Thinking of picking up two for CrossFire :)
 
The card requires two 6 pin power connectors, according to the spec of that psu its fited with one 6 pin pcie cable and one 8 pin pcie cable on which two of the pins detach to form the second 6 pin cable, 8 pin is required for some of the older cards.

EDIT: Glad to hear your sorted
