So, Ive finally got my system built:cool: (and blown the budget in doing so) now, Ive just installed an MSI 8800 GTX and plugged in the power, but before I turn it on I just wanna clarify Im not gonna fry it.

I have an Enermax Liberty 620W PSU with 2 PCI Exspess dedicated cables (currently both currently plugged into the 8800 GTX.) but the card came with two adaptors that plugged into the molex cables from the PSU.

My question is: Should I be using the molex adapters OR the two dedicated PCI Express cables from the PSU OR a combination of the two?

Thanks all -SN-

    Use the PCI express cables from your PSU. The molex adapters are for those who have older PSU's without PCI express connections.
