Hi guys,
I found a great offer I couldn't turn down, so I purchased another GTX 780. I made sure that it matches the core clock, all though it is of a different brand. I opened open my machine and put in the new card, now for my problem. The new card seem to want 16 pins, and not 14 like the other card. I've attached a image of my power-supply where you can see what I have left to plug into. What cables PCI-E do I need? Is it even possible? I am rather new at inserting new hardware - however, I did make sure that my motherboard and power supply were up to the task.

Anyway, to summerize. How do I get my new 16-pin GFX hooked up with the current access to the power supply? Thank you!
nicest,
Mads
*note. obviously I need to dust of the machine
