kenn3th SG For the PCI X16, connect to your motherboard via the exhisting cables from the HD2400. (which too, uses a PCI express X16).
maoless9210900 SG oh okie and where does the other end of the 6 pin plug goes? btw sim lim would sell the 6 pin plug right?
nenepokey SG oh okie and where does the other end of the 6 pin plug goes? btw sim lim would sell the 6 pin plug right?izzit available in ur graphic card that box?
kenn3th SG Search arnd your Mobo/ and if your Hd2400 does have these plugs.Your Package should come with the plugs. This is the visiontek package. - and many other packages, i have seen comes with the power connector
kenn3th SG ya, any computer shops should sell them too.connect the 2 white sections to your motherboard. There should be 2 "plugs" for @ your mobo
barhonda92 SG hmm really cant find it the package does not have it insideanyway thanks for helping one last thing the cable is called what?
kenn3th SG PCI 6 pin power plug.Just tell them you got this Graphics card, then they should understand.first, check what power plug your desktop has. Some of them is from 2 pin to 6pin and some 4pin to 6pin.
barhonda92 SG where to check to see whether it is 2 to 6 pin or 4 to 6 pin?sry i really noob at this kind of stuff
