Considering an Nvidia 4070 Ti Super for my Precision 5820 (950W PSU). What accessories do I need?
I'm looking into upgrading my i9-10940X Precision 5820's GPU from the Quadro P2200 it shipped with to a faster single or dual slot card, with the aim of 4K30 - 4K60 gaming. I'm considering an Nvidia 4070 Ti Super. I've noticed these cards use a 16 pin power connector and ship with a 16-pin to two 8-in power adapter. What other cables or adapters do I need to buy to power the card?
Also, feel free to suggest a different card, as long as it's not larger than dual slot.

For power connector, the 16-pin to two 8-pin adapter was all you need. The 950w system should have two 8-pin cables ready.
For fitment, a large and heavy card will require a bracket that fit into one of the slot on PCIe holder for anti-sag support. However, you may find it (the bracket) with Dell OEM cards only.
