All of the board's power circuitry is packed on the right side of the board, coupled along with a 4-pin Molex power connector which is needed to supply sufficient juice to the card. XFX doesn't bundle a power adapter in their retail box, although every modern PC should have at least one free power connector in their systems to hook this card up to. The card will run in 2D mode without any power connector attached, but will crash the system if a 3D game is launched without the power connected. Unlike some previous cards, the nVidia drivers will not warn you about the power connector not being plugged in - make sure it is!
