Should this video card work with this?

Hey, I'm getting a cheaper desktop and a nice 7970. I am just worried that it doesn't have the one 8 PIN PEG that it needs. I was zooming in carefully and I saw the 6 PIN Peg to fit in the video card, but I didn't really see the 8 PIN. Would I be safe getting these two?

Or do I just need to plug in one?

(PS, it has the correct PCIe express slot so the card is compatible with this mobo)

You would save even more money by building your own. Go here: http://www.logicalincrements.com/, set your price range, and choose a better graphics card if you wish. BTW my build runs BF3 on Max at 45-55 FPS

The GT-620 is very low end. I plan on playing BF3 and COD on Ultra settings. I'm getting this lower end rig because I save alot of money, it has a decent PSU, and it has an amazing i5-3750k. I am getting the 7970 with it to play almost all games on ultra... I was originally going with another desktop but with this one I save alot of money, thus letting me get the more expensive 7970.

I was planning on building my own, but my father isn't a tech savvy and is naive about me building my own. But that is to expected.

Loosen your requirements a little, and maybe someone can help you...

Good Luck!
