    Graphics Card Help

    Hey guys, signed up new and Hexus.net is great, recently been reading the reviews here and its awsome.

    Im going to be Upgrading my Mainboard and My Graphics card soon, and iv chosen to go with the following:
    1. Asus - P5GDC-V Deluxe
    2. Abit Fatal1ty X800XL

    My Question is, on the Abit graphics card it shows the PCI-E Power Connector. Does the Box itself have a converter from that to a molex? My Power Supply which is some-what up to date doesnt have the PCIE power connector to go directly into the graphics card. The abit site inthe (This Box Contains) doesnt list enything got to do with a convertor. Im just worried because i am spending alot of money and i dont want to have to change it.

    Thank you guys,
    Erhan

    You can buy adaptors from the likes of Scan for a couple of quid that convert two molex's to one PCI-E connector. Interested that it uses one, I've got an HIS X800XL that doesn't need any extra power.

    Most cards that need the extra power have convertors in them. But if you need one they're only a few bob
