Cards these days come with cables with 6pin PCI-E converter - it has a 6pin PCIE connector on one end and a (or 2) molex connector on the other end, basically converts one of your PSU molex to a 6pin PCIE-E converter. why do you even have to make one?

So, changing a PSU is not an option. :) @Goran

Well mine is working perfectly on windows xp 64bit. I also had windows vista, its not reccomanded to use it with nvidia chipset. Because when you wan't to play the drivers aren't made so good, gives you error and kicks you out of the game. Also which power supply do you have, 9800gx2 requires 200W. Also to avoid connecting your graphic card like this, you can buy thermaltake 750W or 850W as they have 8pin connectors. Cheers @Radwreck
