diagnostic tool for new power supply?

i just installed my new power supply....OCZ GameXtreme 700Watt PSU, booted up fine, everything seems ok. is there a diagnostic tool download for testing this power supply to see if its working correctly, there seemed to be alot of extra connectors not utilized....i actually only found 4 that i hooked up after a process of elimination (motherboard, DVD-CD, hard drive and CPU2)....i'm running a Q6600 Dual Quad and this OCZ 700W does have 2 PCI-E connectors but my video card may be integrated (Nvidia 8300GS)...i didn't see any ports on my graphics card, do the 8800GT's have ports that will utilize these 2 PCI-E connectors that came w/my new GameXtreme?

Actually, your new GPU will only use one of those 6 pin connectors, but yes, that's what they are there for.
