XFX 4GB Graphic Card

[waqaar_02]

Attention,

I have HP Z600 Workstation for that I have purchase 4GB XFX VGA Card.
now there is a problem with power supply of HP Workstation and the VGA.
power supply is having 6pins power cable support for VGA and the VGA Card is having 8 Pins 2 direct Cable Support Option from Power Supply.
please advice how to overcome with is issue.

well you can buy molex to PCIe adapters, but we need some more info. Like what PSU is in the workstation? and what GPU are you trying to use? if it doesn't even have one 8 pin PCI connector, i would be surprised if it had enough juice to power the card.

we are using DPS - 725AB A REV:03 F

as our Switching Power Supply

Maximum Continues Output power: 650W
