Q: do all the 8-series require the PCI-E power connector? Im looking for the bypass onboard nvidia GPU and get something better. I do not want the OEM 350 watt PS upgrade if possible. Sorry if this has been asked before.
EDIT: Im looking at the newegg pictures and I dont see the conector. But I remember reading somewhere that the 6 pin connector was needed.

Re:Remember children, it's not just about watts, but also about amperages too. If the amperage ratings on the stock PSU aren't high enough or stable enough, you may run into problems later.

Re:only the 8600gts uses 6pin. the 8500gt and 8600gt do not. just get the 8600gts because 350watts is plenty.

Re:thanks doggy. It looks like both the XFX 8500-8600 cards dont require the connector by the looks of the pics on the egg. www.zipzoomfly.com has better prices on these cards FYI. Im still torn on what to get. I really only play americas army at 1440X900
