Antec TruePower430 w/ Asus P5AD2-E

[JoshRtek3]

I have an Antec TruePower 430 Watt PSU on order. My Asus P5AD2-E manual says that 20-pin PSUs are compatible with the board, but will I also need some sort of converted to power my X800XT PCI-e graphics card?

actually what you need might already be in the power supply kit. if you can not find a pcie power connector you will need to get a converter like the one in this link. it simply uses one of your peripheral 4 pin power cables to convert it to the pcie power input.

Yeah you can buy adapters for both video card and motherboard power connector.
