So am planning to upgrade from my GTX 660 to a GTX 960 2GB, but i would like to go for either gtx 960 4GB or even a 970 but they require a 8 pin connector witch my psu doesn't have and i can't afford to upgrade it (my psu is a telsa atx 750W silent running) is there anything i can do other then upgrading my PSU or should i just stick to the 2GB 960?
 
Solution
I would recommend spending more to get the 970 because the 960 won't be significant enough of an upgrade from the 660 in my opinion. My GTX 970 has two six pin connectors. The PSU looks pretty bad honestly, even though it's 750W. You can use a Molex connector to PCI six pin and that should work fine since you already have one six pin. I would save for a new PSU though.

Thanks for the help, i didn't know that 970s came in a version with two 6 pin connectors as the ones i saw only seemed to show 8, and that is good to hear as i have a 6 pin molex laying around somehwere.
