PCI-Express PSU

[Christo]

this is really getting on my nerves

Do all PSU's have the 6 pin connectors required for PCI-Express Graphics
Cards?

I have a Thermaltake W0010 480W PSU and it doesnt seem to have one

do PCI Graphics cards actually need this to function fully?

or can they get their power from the bord?

If someone could point me in the direction of a Particular PSU (preferabley
not expensive, mid range you know) that will support PCI-Express Graphics
Cards I would much appreciate it

I am really wondering that the hell i'm gonna do, I am selling computers
with PCI-E graphics cards and dont really wanna be spending £40 and up for
PSUs I have been using Hiper 425W Hiper PSU's and occasinally i got the
cheapo Q-Tec ones

so if someone could point me to PSUs that support PCI-Express and also will
not break the bank i would be grateful, I have looked about and there dont
seem to be many descriptions with PSUs on the net tha give you the
information needed to infrom you if they support PCI-Express GFX cards.

Thanks (in advane)

I'm fairly sure there are adaptors you can buy. Some of the cards, I
know come with adaptors 6 pin to 4 pin . And some of the cards dont
even use an extra power plug. Many of the 6600GTs dont. and some ATIs.
