Hey i just bought the 770 online

http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_i...
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

my problem is my AX1200 power supply can only use AX1200 modular cables.

I have lost them so i need to buy new ones i dont have the $107 to buy them all so i need to buy the ones i would need to connect the gpu individually

what would i need - 2 X 6+2 pin pcie ( im assuming i can use one as an 8 pin correct?)

http://www.moddiy.com/products/Corsair-AX1200-Professio...

it says the package (770) comes with a power cable obviously because my psu can only use its own cables i will need to buy this too

is it this ? or something else

The link SR71 provided will take you to the Corsair individual cables.
Your first moddiy link shows an individual PCI-E cable. You will need two of these and they will plug into separate (obviously) PCIEx ports on the back of the PSU.
The second moddiy link cable does NOT appear to be for a 1200 psu as the psu connector/plug is a 12-pin plug and the AX1200 uses 8-pin. And yes, they are 6+2 so they can be used in either a 6-pin or 8-pin video card connection.

Ok thank you, I realize i need two 6+2's now but do i need any additional cables? Is the power cable included with the gpu necessary if i have the 6+2's if so what type of cable is it?
