Going to bite and assume you're not trolling. 

If you only have plans to use 1 GPU in that machine, the PCI-E riser really isn't necessary and could possibly add some instability to your rig for not real gain, but I'm guessing that won't be the case.

Regarding the cabling all of the cables you are trying to connect should be pretty well labled.  There should be a big 40 pin connector that goes from the PSU to your MB and probably an 8-pin that goes to another CPU-specific plug on the motherboard.  As chek2fire stated, two specific cables (6 & 8-pin) should go from the PSU to the GPU.  If you do go the riser path, an additional cable will be needed on the PSU to connect to the MOLEX power connector on the riser.

Good luck!

To connect the power for your card you need the psu cable 1 in your photo. You need a 8 pin and 6 pin connector. You can see the cable connector will write pci-e on them. Look and this photo with the same card

Please check out my Pics and help me with the connections.

If you would give me a point wise instructions based on my pictures which cable goes where and fits where..will help me really to get it connected.

I didn't take pics of my another PSU 850 watts...because i just need to know how to connect psu with the gpus and motherboard..so i can do the same with the other PSU.
