XFX GeForce 7800 GT / 256MB GDDR3 Question

Ok does this card not need a 6-Pin PCI-Express Connector?

http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applicatio...Tab=0&NoMapp=0

Minimum System Requirements
Intel Pentium III or IV, Celron, AMD, Duron or Athlon class processor or higher
64MB of RAM
Windows 2000/XP
CD or DVD-ROM Drive
A minimum 350 Watt system power supply (with 12v current rating of 20A or more)
A PCI Express compliant motherboard
A PCI Express supplementary power connector

I want to get this power supply:

Or do all PCI-e cards need to have a special PCI-e PSU to work?

That card does need the black 6-pin connector and the PSU you mentioned does have that connector. Here is the same PSU on newegg so you can see pics of what connectors are on it.

Tiger Model # EG465P-VE FMA

Ok then I didnt catch that, it doesnt really say if it supports 24pin motherboards...

This one is also good if you can spend a little more because im for sure this one has 20/24 pin
