Phil wants to add a new video card, and he is sure the power supply is sufficient to run the new video card. But when he tries to locate the power connector for the new video card, he does not find a 6-pin PCI-E power connector. He has several extra cables for hard drive power cables from his power supply that he is not using.



What is the least expensive way for Phil to power his video card?

Answer:

Using a SATA to a 6 pin PCI-E adapter.

Step-by-step explanation:

sometimes you may feel the need to make some upgrades to your computer, video cards are options where an upgrade is made, a 6 Pin PCI-E adapter is 6 pins 12V power adapter used to power a video card where their slots cannot provide them with enough power they require. in a situation where the card requires a lot of power than the slot can provide, 6 pins PCI-E adapter is a very good option.
