Installing GTX 970

[a_2008]

Hello Guys

I had MSI GTX 570 but after dusting it didn't work (maybe because of electricity) and I bought a GTX 970 MSI . Since it has different pin I don't know how to install it ? GTX 570 has 2 x 6 pin that right one is PCI-E but this one has one 6pin and one 8 pin . Can you help me how to change those pin and install this graphic card?

And how to prevent from static electricity in computer when I'm replacing Graphic Card? ( I don't one to same happen to this new Graphic card )

My system:
CPU : Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2500K CPU @ 3.30GHz
Motherboard : ASUS P8Z68 PRO
Power supply : XFX 700 watts



my graphic card is same as these in picture:

Your PCIe power cable should be a 6+2 connection, just pull the +2 away from the 6, then plug in the 6.
