Ok so im looking to upgrade my current build.
My current:
CPU: 965BE AMD
GPU: 6770 AMD RADEON
RAM: 4Gb Corsair

Bring me to my new upgrades. Im looking at putting in.

THIS> www(.)overclockers(.)co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-210-XF&groupid=701&catid=56&subcat=


I looked on The AMD Website about the Video card specifications and it said i need two 6Pin 75w PCI-Express Power connectors on my PSU.

The PSU im looking at is this.

www(.)overclockers(.)co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-060-OP&groupid=701&catid=123&subcat=

Is it compatible? And if not is there a cable/wire i can buy to make it compatible? A m8 of mine said there is.

Looking at someone with relatively good knowledge @ -Frostbite-

Sorry about the URLS just take out the techgame parts soz

That power supply will be ok, the 6950 takes two 6 pin PCI-E power connectors, that power supply only has one but your graphics card will come with the adapter you need for the other one

I would recommend though that you go with a better power supply, you don't need more watts but its generally better not to go with cheap power supplys.

Don't cheap out on the PSU the worst thing you can do i have never even heard of this brand, I would at least go for a OCZ,Corsair,Coolmaster ETC: if the PSU blows up then you're whole PC can go up with it.
