PSU Question regarding the Mid-Range, Jan 2005 Guide

[symbol]

I was reading the recent, mid-range jan 2005 guide and it mentioned the following regarding the fortron PSU:

One item that is missing from this Fotron is the new 6-pin PCIe graphics power connector - two 4-pin molex connectors can be used with an adapter, of course.

It appears that my configuration below won't work because the fortron PSU doesn't have a 6-pin PCIe connector. Do I even need an adapter for my situation? If so, please provide a link to where I can purchase an adapter.

It may not be applicable, but I'm not a gamer and I'm just using my system for basic business apps & occassional dvd watching.

PSU:
Fortron 400W ATX12V v2.0 Power Supply with 120mm Fan

Motherboard:
ASUS "P5GD1" 915P Chipset Motherboard For Intel LGA 775 CPU

Video Card:
GIGABYTE nVIDIA GeForce 6600 Video Card, 128MB DDR, 128-Bit, DVI/TV-Out, PCI-Express

Display:
UltraSharp 1704FPV 17-inch LCD

6600's generally don't have the 6 pin PCI-E power plug on them. That Gigabyte doesn't, according to the pics of it. You should be fine.

If the VC doesn't come with on, 9nd form the pics it doesn't), you'll ned one.

His card doesn't require auxiliary power in the first place, that's why it doesn't come with an adapter...

Damn, forgot all about that. Thank you for correcting me.

Thanks for confirming this. I was about to buy an adapter for nothing!
