As far as I can tell that's supposedly a normal connector in Italy (I'm assuming that's where you are?). I would guess that it is fine for DSL - I would be more worried about the quality/condition of the cables inside the walls of the house, and between the house and the termination point.

Looking to buy GTX690, other multi-GPU cards, or single-slot graphics cards:

As long as it has 4 connectors then it'll work fine for DSL. Just work with the service provider installing internet there, and look for a few adapters from that connector to RJ-11 (phone jack). 

Fine you want the PSU tier list? Have the PSU tier list: https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/1116640-psu-tier-list-40-rev-103/

You only need two for ADSL, a single pair

I'm assuming one pair needs to be kept for a landline phone. :)

I'm from egypt so i guess that's why seeing this was a first for me 

The isp when i called them said that this landline can handle up to 50 mbps so i'm guessing the cables are fine?

Hey its a first for me in the US as well. If you look up what countries use this connector, I only see Italy.
