Ketchup - Ya, that was the first thing I actually looked at when I got it here.....It is set to PCI-e as the default display port.

Meghan -He got a Thermaltake Toughpower XT. It's 80 plus Cert. and SLI ready. However it has only one main line and is rated at 575 watt....what should be adequate to run a single GTX 460. The particular unit is modular...and has only 2 6-pin connectors. Just enough for the GPU. Both connections are very solid. However it did have the additional 2-pin connector that was also linked to one of the VGA power plugs...I believe this is only to use that connector as an 8-pin if needed for cards like the 5 series that take the single 6-pin and single 8-pin.
