thanks for the answers, i mean, i plug my graphics card in to the slot and its ready to go, but some u need to plug in the slot AND connect a cable too. i want one that i can power with just the slot no cables connected as there is none coming from my PSU for it

Sorry that I didn't read your question more carefully. Here you go:

EVGA 02G-P4-3753-KR
$139.99

EVGA 02G-P4-3751-KR
$119.99

* Please be aware that neither of these cards come with gaming codes.
* The difference between the two cards is the first one has a high company set overclock than the second. You could save $20 if you care to do the overclock yourself. Totally up to you.

Addendum:

Total Power Draw : 60 Watts
Minimum of a 300 Watt power supply.

! The single fan EVGA 750 Ti's do not have power connectors. The double fan EVGA 750 Ti's do have connectors, but they are optional; meaning that the cards will still power on even if you don't use them. I just got off the phone with EVGA technical support to confirm this piece of information.
