that's a Red Devil card. A different model. The Red Dragon only has one 8 pin connector.
No, you are fine, He is talking about a different card.
Just update the BIOS and let us know how you get on.
gtx 750ti was my previous card didnt need power connector but previous card before that did so i know they did work MSI P67A-C45 motherboard intel I5 2500K 8 gb memory
Unforntantly i didnt have a usb stick waiting on it to be delivered tonight so will update as soon as i have done it.
Have you uninstalled the Nvidia drivers first? You might need to use DDU aswell for a clean uninstall/install.
I did but had to put my old card back in to sort this all out
Ok, well at this point i'd be looking at updating the BIOS, can you see how old the current BIOS is and if it is the latest or not?
CPU-Z will show current BIOS date.
Its never been updated from when i bought it 7 years ago ( runs and hides in embarrassment)
I had similar to this with an RX480 but the fan span at 100%, and recieved a lot of really good advice from this place, and the psu forum too.
Tried everything and it turned out to be a knackered card after all, so if you can try the card in another machine I'd deffo recommend that before you get too carried away maching changes to your machine!

Shouldn't really need to unless you have a specific reason to do so.
