Default Graphics Card Question

I have brought this card nVidia GeForce 7300GT 512MB AGP from Aria Technology. It cost me £38.72 and the total price was £43.40. It has already arrived in the post and I will install it tomorrow evening and I will post back once I have it installed.

The 7300 is worse than the 1650 and 7600!
Just because it says 512mb doesn't make it a good card

The 7300GT is at the low end of the 7 series of cards, compared to the 7600GT(midrange) it is about 2/3 as good

Default Graphics Card Question

I installed it yesterday afternoon and it works OK, but I do need the additional power supply cable connected (it was supplied). The thing is that I cannot see where it connects on my power supply. It does work without just a bit slower than it should be. Please help me.

It looks like you only need a 4pin molex, don't you have one of them available on your power supply?
If not you can buy a splitter

just plug it in (with power off of course) as long as the plug fits comfortably, it is right, don't force them though, but it will need a bit of a push to connect the connectors.
