I just purchased a EVGA E-Geforce 9600 GT video card. I was wondering where do i plug in the PCI-E video card power adapter? I have a GIGABYTE GA-P35-DS3L motherboard.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Normally a six pin block on the side of the card. The card may come with a 6 pin adaptor that you can connect to your power supply if it doesn't have one already.

So it connects to the card and the power supply? It does not connect to the motherboard anywhere?

It connects to the motherboard through the PCIe slot. It takes it's power from the power supply.
