It all depends on which PSU you have and what kind of power connection/s it provides for. Some of the X8xx series cards just used a regular 4-pin Molex like what plugs into an IDE Harddrive.
Others may use the newer PCI-e power connector. It's a smaller 6-pin connector.
Would have been nice to have gotten more specifications about the card before you agreed to buy it.
Good luck!
