Hey guys,
Just finished my new build but when i turn on i get the message 'You have not connected the power cable to your video card. Please refer to the 'Quick start guide'. The card is a 4870 Glaciator, and has 2 six pin PCI-E connectors on the back for power, but i only have a PCI-E wire split to 2 molex. I assumed that these both need to be plugged into the PSU, but no success. PSU is 500W OCZ ModXstream.
Do i need to buy a 6 pin PCI-E to 6 pin PCI-E for the second connection?
Edit* Sorry the images have rotated for some reason. Look this way up >>>>>
