Hi, your graphics card requires an 8-pin power cable labeled PCI-E. Many listings mention P5, P9, P11, P14, etc., but none specify a yellow/black or black/black connector combination. You should check the PSU manual for exact pin requirements and whether a dual-color connector is needed. Options like P4 or any black connector might work depending on your setup, but confirm compatibility with the card’s specifications.

I'm using a standard power supply, but I can adjust it based on your needs.

No cables have PCIe at the end opposite the P designation. The power source you're employing is not specified.

They seem to be using the P3 connectors. I’d also think about using a higher-quality power source if possible. It’s quite basic and outdated. What device are you trying to run?

Could you clarify if you're referring to a specific power supply? It seems unclear whether you mean safety concerns or whether those two components should be avoided.

The connectors should display P4 and P3, indicating a 6-pin PCIe interface. Determine what device is being driven by the power source.

That's a 6+2, perfectly normal, and if it wasn't it wouldn't fit.

I recommend avoiding the power supply. Given its age and the voltage fluctuations these cards generate while running, I’m unsure it could handle them. The only review I found on Newegg was from 2008, and at that time the power supply was already basic.
