6 Pin PCI Connector Question?

I was looking on the market for a 9800 GT and most of the ones I saw required 2 6 Pin PCI connectors. I saw one 9800 at a local Best Buy and the recommended power supply was only 350 watt. How do they expect you to have a power supply like that with two 6 Pin PCI connectors? I have a BFG 450 watt psu and it only came with one connector. So my question is, is there any way I can hook up another 6 Pin from my power supply to the graphics cardare there any kind of adapters out there? I would appreciate some help. I may be missing something here. Thanks

Answer:

There is adapters, contacting the manufacturer would be helpful. They might be able to provide you with an adapter or suggest one for you.
I have the XFX GeForce 9800GT and it only has one PCI-E power connector to it. Maybe it was taking about for SLI setup. List of few in the link. they all take one PCI-E power connector. Int he second link in the video you can see how the PCI-E connector looks.
