I'm interested in this, also, as every video card I've ever installed was powered by the AGP/PCI/PCIe bus on the motherboard...

N4RPS - not sure what you are asking or interested in. If it's the auxiliary power (or whatever they call it) there are some PCIe cards that require an additional 6 pin power plug connection. This is the spec sheet for mine: http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-...ifications
If you look down near the bottom on the specs it shows "supplemental pwer connection: 6 pin"
Many of the power supplies have this coming right off the supply, otherwise there are adapters to get the power elsewhere. I have heard that some people have run this card (GeForce 9600 GT without a supplement connection plugged in and everything seemed to work but performance was not great. Not sure if this was your question?
