Quick question does it matter which one (picture attached) I can’t see a difference besides the 90 degree angle

 

Yes, it does. Two of them have 90-degree connectors and which one you get depends on how the connector on your card is oriented and if you want the bend to go down or up. 

 

However you can't use either of the 90-degree models, you PSU doesn't have a 12VHPWR connector. You need the third model, the adapter.

no, it only matters if you care about what the cable looks like in your pc.

Just don't get the adapter , it's completely redundant at this point.

Because they aren’t familiar with what they’re talking about? Not sure what else you’re looking for.

You’ll find when you get it that your PSU doesn’t have the required port to plug it in. If you check the Compatible PSUs listed at that link above you’ll see yours isn’t listed. 
 

The third option, the adapter, is what you needed.
