So I have used this sound card before and would like to hook it up agian in my new PC I am building. The only problem is that it uses a floppy power cable (I think) and I have no idea how or where it connects to.

Also it uses a tiny PCI X1 slot which my motherboard does not have. Is it cool in a PCIe X4 slot?

These are some pictures or cabels that fit together and the DX. The White one came with the card while the black cable came with my PSU Seasonic Prime 650W. Thanks.

Sorry about the dupliacte pictures.

It's ok to put a pcie 1x card into a 4x slot.

That little adaptor is used to connect to a HDD power connector.

Your PSU is a modular one and the larger black cable is the HDD power cable, so you can use that. PSU > black cable > white adaptor > sound card. Or if you have a free HDD connector already inside your PC, you can use that.

The Asus Xonar DX sound card (PCI-E X1) will work in a PCI-E X1, X4, X8 or X16 PCI-E slot.
Use the adapter cable (with white ends), the bigger 4 prong wire is to be connected to the power cable that comes off the computer's power supply.
