Does my smps support amd radeon hd 6670 gddr5 asus edition graphics card...my psu doesn't have a pci power connector..
 
Solution
Get a double molex to single pci connector, you will need two free molex connectors coming from your PSU to do this, but it will give you the connector you need. DON'T BUY A SINGLE MOLEX TO SINGLE PCI CONNECTOR, the wires will actually get hot enough to melt, trust me, I'v tried. Also, your system should have at least a 600 watt PSU, if it doesn't have a 600+ psu, I would recommend you upgrade, or you will burn up components in your system... PSU's can be found for $20-300 new on ebay or $70ish-400 new on newegg.

does your radeon hd 6670 card have a 6 or 8 pin pcie power connector port? radeon hd 6670 cards are generally powered by the pcie slot and they don't require extra pcie power. compatibility also depends on the rest of your pc configuration (which you should state).

I suggested 600w because I do not know his system specs, he didn't list anything on it. AMD recommends 400+, but the guy could have multiple PCI cards, a demanding CPU, multiple drives, etc. I also recommended 600+ for future proofing, you do not just want to reach the bare minimum requirements for your system, thats never a good idea considering you can short out components by under powering them. Anyways, a 600-650w psu can be picked up on ebay fairly cheap, as low as $40. Only here to help! Have a nice day.
