Hello everyone, I recently bought a Sapphire R9 390 video card and read that I could run it fine with 650w (my current psu) but the problem is i never payed attention to the connectors and I don't think my psu has the required connectors. Could anyone help me out, I want to know if I can somehow use this psu or if im going to need a new one?

My current PSU = Antec TP-650w

Oh could I be missing some cables then? I bought this PSU used and I only see one PCIE 6-pin and one PCIE 6+2-pin that are permanently attached. It seems I only have one 8-Pin (the 6+2 one). If these sold separately, under what name can I find them?

The friend I bought it from said he couldn't find the extra cables, could you please link me to the correct cable that I should buy to power my GPU with this psu? Thanks :wahoo:

Would this one work?
