I just bought the Sapphire HD2900 XT with 512 memory from newegg.com. I can't wait to put it in my computer, only I see a problem and I am not sure what to do about it.
I see that the card requires (1) 6 pin pci-e connection and an additional 8 pin connection. I have an OCZ GameExtreme 850 watt PSU and it has (2) 6 pin pci-e connectiors, but only (1) 8 pin connector and that one is being used by the motherboard. I have a Gigabyte N650SLI-DS4 mobo and it requires that 8 pin be plugged into it.
So how do I use the video card if it requires an 8 pin connector and I don't have one avaiable to use? The card came with no adapters.
Thanks,
