Hello! I just was able to get an open box video card and wondered it I needed to buy an accessories before I could make it work. I bought this card. [Asus 4870x2] but I won't get any of the parts it shows with it.

Thanks!

Edited to make link work!

Sorry to bump but I don't want to get this and not be able to install it. My other cards didn't have a separate power supply connection. Do i need to buy any of the wires/accessories that would normally come with it or is it pretty much install it in the PCIe slot? Thanks

If your power supply does not have the correct plugs to go to that card, you will probably need to check the photos and perhaps buy adapters. However, just be sure that your power supply can actually handle that beastly card.

I got the [Corsair 850W] I think that should do it.

just connect the PCIe 6pin and or 8pin from your PSU to the card !

Have fun ;)
