6800 Ultra, a thing that is need??????

[holycpu]

When I try to buy this card online, it gives me an option to see whether I am going to buy a thing called "Molex to PCI-E express adaptor, required to connect to power supply".

What is this? Do I really need it? >_< !!!!

For those who own a 6800 Ultra, please help me.

Thank you so much !

Do you have a PCI-E motherboard? (You don't mention if the card is AGP or not)
If no PCI-E, then you don't need it

If it is PCI-E, then I couldn't tell you; I don't have PCI-E

It look's like to me, If you have a PCI-E motherboard, you may or may not need it. Does your power supply have an extra power cord end that connect's to a floppy drive?

From looking at various 6800Ultra PCI-E cards at newegg they seem to have the PCI-E power connector to two molex adapters with the cards

See

If your power supply has a PCI-E power connector already, you don't need the adapter.
