Hi
Just received my new GPU, a Radeon 7770 card. It has a power cable, this was unexpected as the old card just sites on the motherboard.
I cannot see any spare cables from the PSU to use. There is one that comes off the DVD drive, but it does not reach the GPU socket.
Also, the GPU can take double the pins (6 instead of 3 I think) of what my spare plug has.
Can I just get a 3 pin extension to add it on?
I may wait as a new PC is arriving in the next week or so, so may be better off putting it in there.,
