My power supply is a Corsair CX600m and I was wondering if it has the correct pins to connect to a Nvidia GeForce GTX 770. I looked up what the 770 requires and I saw that it requires one 8-pin and one 6-pin connector. I also looked up the specifications on the power supply and I could not figure out if it had those connectors. So I'm asking if someone knows if I'm set or if I need a new power supply. Thank you in advance. :)

Yes, it does have the necessary connectors to attach to a gtx770. No issues there. Some would say that you have a low end PSU, which isn't really the case. It is an entry level PSU with some cheaper capacitors to meet a budget. It still meets standard ATX specs and is a basic, ok power supply.

That said, I personally wouldn't use it with a high end graphics card like a 770. Technically speaking it should be fine. It has the watts/amps to power it no problem. If you asked corsair if it'll power you up, they'd say yes, no problem. The question mark is, for how long.

Wow, quick answer. Thank you very much! I will probably just go out and get another PSU, because I don't like taking chances. Do you have any suggestions on one that will work?
