I'd like to upgrade my graphics card to an GTX 560ti, which through a little research i've found has 2 6 pin power connectors, would i be able to hook it up to my psu see below for spec. Basically can i get another 6 pin lead an connect to my psu to provide power for the card ?

My system specs are =

Antec 300 with basiq 550w psu,
Gigabyte GA-MA790XT-UD4P motherboard,
AMD Phenom II X3 tri core 720 Black edition cpu,
Antec Kúhler H2O 620 CPU Watercooler
ATI 4830 Graphics Card,
Corsair XMS3 4gb DDR3 ram,
Samsung spinpoint 320gb sata hdd
 
From a quick search i found your psu, it does have 2 6pin pci-e power connectors. I cant see why it wouldnt work. Im sure more will comment but your psu you looks fine for the task.
 
Thanks I dont think i have all the cables that came with the psu would i be able to buy them seperately sorry if question is a bit silly ?
