    That card requires a 6 pin power connection.

    Ideally you have a PCI_E ready PSU with a 6 pin PCI_E lead.

    If not most cards have a 4 pin molex / 6 pin PCI_E adapter which should work but not as well.

    The power port is on the rear end of that model I believe.

    Be back in like 10 mins.

    Alright, my PSU only has 1, 4 pin power connector. Unless i'm missing the other 4 or 6 pin somewhere.

    That graphics card requires:

    Dedicated 6-pin PCIe Molex power connector required (not shared or split)

    MSI N9600GT-T2D512-OC (GeForce 9600 GT) :: Articles :: www.hardwarezone.com

    The 6 pin port on the graphics card is probably on the rear end or on the side near the rear.

    If your PSU were rated for PCI_E it would have a dedicated 6 pin line for this card.

    Otherwise some cards come with an adapter to go from the standard 4 pin to a 6 pin.

    Whereas the latter should work it will not work as well as if the PSU were PCI_E ready.
