I'm in deep-****. Today I bought the ABiT IP35-E, Intel E8400, 2 x 1GB Corsair 800MHz, and Radeon HD3650XT 512MB. Now the problem is, my POV 650W SMPS don't have the 8-pins PCI-E connector, just have 2 x 6-pin PCI-E. What am I supposed to do ? Should I cut one and tweak ? Please tell me what to do ? What are you guys doing ? :(

This is what I have

no other way to convert 6pin to 8pin one by cutting,etc.
