Fortunately, the card came with one of these:

However, I cannot find where the end connects to. Anyone know the name of the connection and where it goes?

Yeah, it is a molex and I've found the female equivalent.

Although that's useless now seeing as I've found two SPARES hanging around the back.


Thanks anyway, Dae. :)
