Hello i am wondering,yesterday i bought a Nvidia Gtx 650 and it has a 6-pin connector.Now do i need to connect that or can i run my system whitout it like low power cards.

 

P.S. my PSU doesnt have aditional 6pin connector but can i use some kind of a extension cable idk...

 

Thanks. :)

Leaving a power connector unplugged is always asking for trouble. If you must, get a SATA power to PCIe adapter to power it, which may not be ideal, but should tide you over until you get a real power supply.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

And do i have to by a new psu bcs mine is 300w my cpu isnt really that power hungry as well

It's always recommended to have a power supply that actually has connectors required for your equipment. The fact that it has no PCIe connectors means it wasn't designed (to some extent) to power a PCIe device.

max temp 65 C. Is there something wrong whit it ?

perfectly fine.

 

But SLI is not recommended on budget power supplies. You should upgrade to a gtx 960 instead.
