I formerly was running a Saphhire HD 7750, but decided to upgrade to a Sapphire HD 7970. My HD 7750 didn't require any connectors to be hooked to it, but now when I received the Sapphire HD 7970, I need 2x8 Pin connectors! All that I have are 2 4-pin connectors! What should I do? I need help, and fast!!

Upgrade your power supply. If your power supply doens't have the required power connectors, it is most likely not good enough to run a HD 7970.
What power supply do you have?

^ that is a perfect answer, and you should always check the necessary watts for your gpu's to avoid being burned upon purchases in the future best of luck i would recommend a EVGA SuperNOVA 650 G1 650W as it is fully modular and is more than enough wattage for this gpu!
