The thing is 5670 is an overpriced piece of ****. You would be way better off getting a $30-40 PSU (search Newegg for those with MIR), and get at least a 5750.

The one on the right is what you need if you don't have the one on the left in your psu.

Thats called a molex to pci-e adapter (the one on the right.).

Now most 5750 cards should come with the adapter in the box.

You just stick the 2 4 pin molex connectors in the 6 pin adapter and it should work.

Now look in your case do you have 2 unused white molex connectors?
They are the ones connected to your harddrive. and dvd drive.
