Hi guys,I want to upgrade to a new graphic card for gaming,but the problem is that i only have 8 pin power suply.So I would like to know what are the best graphic cards with 8 pin power requirement.
BTW I am using gt9600
 
What motherboard and CPU do you have, and why aren't you willing to upgrade your power supply?

I have a motherboard with PCI-E 2.0 slot for graphic cards.I don't have that much money to spend so i'm looking to minimize my expenses :)(that's why I don't want to upgrade to a better power suply)

Although I might consider buying a better power suply if i found one that's not to expensive

You could take off the side panel of your PC case and look :)

"8 pin power req" doesn't really mean anything, there are also molex->PCIE adapters you can get, although it's probably a low quality unit if it already doesn't come with 2x PCIE
 
Well, we need to know what exact model of power supply you have before we can recommend anything.

That being said, a 750ti is a decent upgrade from the 9600gt. As long as you have a good brand psu with at least 430 watts you can use the 750ti.
