SO....i got this x800xt i yoinked outta a dell system. But the only problem is that my antec truepower 430W doesnt have the needed 6pin conector, nor can i steal the one from the dell as it is on the PSU. I called up ati and they wont do jack for me, and i read on a review of it that they hotwired it to make it work. So basically what i need to know is how to hotwire the x800xt using 1 or 2 4pin power connectors. OR...if someone could find me a power adapter online that would be great too...casue i cant seem to find one.

Thanks

Come now, someone must know which voltages go on what pin...anyone find a users manual for the x800?

I can almost bet if you go to ATI's website you can find a user's manual..I perused it the other day.
