which type ps plugs are needed for this graphics card?

Unless I overlooked it, it doesn't tell which type or how many ps plugs are needed for this graphics card does anyone know? I've already ordered one so I hope, I have the necessary plug/plugs needed. Also, surely it is win 8.1 compatible? OH, the card I ordered is 280 not, 280X Thanks! MSI USA R9 280X GAMING 3G

According to: MSI Radeon R9-280X TwinFrozr Gaming OC review - Product Photos - MSI Radeon R9-280X TwinFrozr Gaming OC it reqiures 1 x 6pin and 1x 8pin PCIx connectors and according to this line:"PCIe PEG connectors native (converting them from a Molex Peripheral connector anno 2012 we feel is a no-go)." adapters from 4 pin Molex are not going to work.

This is the ps I have it does have the right plugs am I correct? Thanks!

It should have total of 6 x PCI 6 pin and/or 6+2 pin cables. Corsair HX1050 Series Modular Power Supply - 1050W, 80 Plus Gold, SLI Ready, Active PFC - CP-9020033-NA at TigerDirect.com

The 6+2 should work for the 8 pin connector correct?

Yep, that's what they are made for, there are so many combinations out there so they would have to pack many more separate ones.
