I bought an 8800 off of ebay. Turns out MY PSU DOESN'T HAVE AND 6 PIN FUCKING CONNECTOR SLOTS. WHAT THE FUCK> Really fucking pissed. off.

What PSU? You can get molex to 6 or 8 pin adapters (if your PSU has enough power to support the extra draw).

Welp bummer... I take thats a AMD gpu and not a Nvidia 8800.

 

Nah, I can only assume it would be the NVIDIA. There's no desktop GPU from AMD that's an 8800 specifically. Even if it were, it would require cabling anyway.
