i meant, does it require an extra plug besides the motherboard? ( a plug to the power supply for instance). Thanks

Yes it does. It has a 6-pin PCI-E power connector on the front edge of the board.
1787485
It does require one plug into the power supply, as well the plug into the motherboard.
1787486
yes it needs a power input .....but it basically plugs into the mother board pci slot..
1787487
Yes. It should have 6 prongs and should attach to the end of the GPU to provide power to the card.

no, this is a power supply, it gives power to the components inside the pc like hard drive, motherboard, video card etc. You need something like a "CyberPower CP600LCD"

No because it's plugged into a 2.0 slot on the motherboard. It just makes you able to use it

No it doesn't come with a power supply. The kind you need is really more dependent on other components in your system, usually the video card.

it needs a power supply. laptop power supply plugs into it, it plugs into the laptop. it worked well till my video card melted due to a known problem with nvidia graphics chips. it has lots of extra connections and is supper convenient to plug one plug in and be connected to usb/Ethernet/sound/ power/whatever.

I don't have that same supply but it works fine together with a micro itx intel mobo and a extra USB 3.0 plugged in the PCI slots with a small 150W switching supply.

No. Your power supply should come with the necessary inputs for it to get power.

It doesnt require a power connector from psu, draws its power straight through the motherboard. Not sure about power requirements, i have a 480 watt psu and im running lots of accessories off it with no problems- tower with illuminated panels and cooling fans, neon light in tower, auxiliary blower motor, and sound card. system is a second gen i5 cpu w/ 8 gigs ram. You should be ok, unless you start putting all these lights into it.

If you are asking about the connection plug/cord to the motherboard yes it does.

Sorry I'm AMD all the way, but your motherboard mfr and/or the card mfr should have recommended power supply requirements on their sites...

It doesn't need any extra power. what do you mean with that "old 2 pin" ? When I tried it the first time it didn't give any video output, but then I went to the bios setup and set to use the PCI card as main video device. Then it booted normally.

No it does not need to be plugged into the psu, you can install it and use the disk that comes with it right out of the box.

It does not say anywhere on the box what it recommends for power supply. I am running it on a 250 watt power supply and it works great. I dont have any extra stuff drawing power on the computer. And no on needing the extra wire. It just draws its power from the PCIe X16 slot, so you will need one of those. (make sure its an X16 slot and not just a reg PCI slot.

Still researching the question but I "assume" the question related to a requiring a 6-pin connector to power the card - besides the PCI Express slot itself.

No power cable is needed. The card gets its power from the motherboard via the PCI connector.

That shouldn't be necessary. If you had read through all of the reviews, it's been stated a few times, that the older power supply- which people were having problems with- has been replaced in this build.

No. It's powered by the pcie connection. It has an optional power supply adapter, but its not necessary.
