PSU Help.

A few days ago I asked for advice on new parts for an upgrade here.
I was told the PSU would be ok. It's not.
The Radeon requires a 6 pin power supply :mad:

So now I need another PSU with the 6 pin power but without spending too much.
Or is there some kind of adaptor i can buy for pennies ?

All you need is a 4 pin molex > 6 pin PCI-E adaptor. OCUK sell them for £3.47. Take a look here - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/acatalog/Other_Cables.html

Hmm

Cheers mate, if i wasnt freaking out about it I'd probably have thought to look in the cables section :rolleyes:

The newer versions of those Akasa Paxpower PSUs come with a PCI-Express 6-pin power connector (i.e. actually attached, not an adapter), nothing wrong with the amount of power they supply.
