Connect Auxiliary power
A high power PCIe card such as a GPU requires additional power.
Aside from the power being supplied by the PCI-Express slot, which is 75 watts, there is not enough to meet
the power requirement for a high-end GPU with power consumption of over 125 Watts. A direct
connection to the power supply is needed to obtain additional power.
This can be done by using the 6+ 2 pin PCIe cable connector from the expansion unit.
Top-of-the-line
graphics processing units or
GPUs have a built-in AUX power port in which you may attach the PCIe cable
connector.
The picture below shows how the 6+2 pin connector is attached to the GPU.
