If your 500W PSU does not have PCIe power cables, it may be too old or too low quality to recommend running a PCIe GPU from.

What's the PSU brand and model? If you find it in tier five below (or tier four to some extent), replace it ASAP. If you don't see it anywhere on the list, you may still want to replace it since there are far many more junk-quality bands out there than are listed in tier five while I doubt there are many decent quality ones still missing from tiers one through three.
