I have an htpc with an evga 430w psu (evga 100-w1-0430) which only has 1 6/8 pin pcie power adapter, I was looking at an older gpu to go with my G3258 and z97 mobo, but only just realised it has 1 pcie connector. I was going for a 560ti, but that has 2 x 6 pin, so are there any that have only 1 6 or 8 pin connectors?
It is also running 1 ssd, 1 hdd, 1 fan and 1 blu ray drive
Oh also I only want a cheap second hand gpu, just wondered what sort of thing to look for or if it was actually worth it?
 
Thanks for the replies, but I'm only after something really cheap, hence been looking at older second hand gpu's, I might just get the 4 pin to 6 pin adapters, then get something with 2x 6 pin connectors.
 
Cheers all I've gone for a 560ti I will just use a moved adapter. It's well within spec and has a single rail. So should be fine :)
