Nvidia Geforce 6600 GT power problem
« on: January 09, 2008, 02:40:41 AM »
Hi,

First of all, apologies if this seems a silly question, but I really do have limited experience with things like this.  Secondly, thanks in advance for anyone that can help me.  So, here goes...

I have recently purchased an Nvidia Geforce 6600 GT graphics card for my computer.  It states that to work properly it needs to be plugged into the internal power supply.  Unfortunately, the only available power supply doesn't reach the graphics card, so I can't plug it in.  So, where do I go from here?  Is there a way of buying something like an extension so that it will reach?  Or not?  Any help or advice is greatly appreciated.

Many Thanks

Lee

    Yeah something like this should work:

    But maybe all you need to do is to swap some of the power connectors around? You should have some connectors that are capable of reaching the graphics card.
