I have a 350W Generic PS but it doesn't have the 6-pin connector for a graphics card.

I'm looking for a power supply that can support AT LEAST one 6800 Ultra or X850 XT with their auxiliary power connectors.

So, I should be using the +12V rating to ensure it is above 18A, correct?

Are there any special connectors that it should have?

How about this one:

Sadly, the Thermaltake is about $70.00 Canadian which is more that I want to spend for my backup rig.

I would optimally want to buy a used one for a good price. Which is why I am posting here.

Yeah that one would work...and very nicely. And sadly, I don't have any spare PSU's for you. I just wanted to help you out :).

I'll see if I get any bites with someone's used one before buying a new one.

Any takers?

you want a PSU with at least 30A on its 12v rail, anything less your doing nothing more than wasting your money. I have a hiper type r that will do PCIE, but im in UK so by the time u done that conversion crap your better off buying new.

So, I need a PCI-E power connector for the card and 30A on the 12V rail. Right?

Finding one that high could be a problem....
