okay well the wires "behind it" are called molex adapters. Most power supplies have this. If you power supply has enough power you should be alright. The only other problem would be if your board has pci express x16.

Your power supply most likely is not strong enough for the whole system. You may need to buy a new one

That Molex adapter Is whats Gonna Power your Card, Well the PCI Express x16 will also serve has a Power host but it wont be enough to fully utilize your 9600 GT. I had a few Video cards that were power demanding that used the 6pin connector. and Needed the 6pin connector, if your PSU is under 400 i say up it.. to at lest 550 watts,Also your saying the powersupply unit to the motherboard is 20+4 this is good and that adapter will help.

From my experience It need the 6pin adapter to power it. I had a 400watt so I upped to 550 and worked just fine. can you tell me how many watts your CPU will pull. mine is 125watts (its OC'ed was 65watts).. so that was a big factor in my psu upgrade.

Most Video cards want at lest minimum of 400watts Get 450, 500, or a 550 or higher if you want. other wise you should be Good with a 550.. Worst Case your Video Card wont Power on with a PSU under 400.
