Gwen recently purchased a new video card, and after she installed it, she realized she did not have the correct connections and was not able to power the video card. What connectors should Gwen look for when purchasing a new power supply?

Answer:

The correct answer is: 8-pin PCI-E connector and 6-pin PCI-E connector.

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the components that consume more power of a computer is the video card. Depending on the different models and brands of graphic cards available there are in the market, the external power for the video card requires a 6-pin or 8-pin PCI-Express power connector.
