Welcome to DS.

I take it that you found that cable in the front connected to the gpu. Open the back and you should find additional pcie cables already connected to the psu. You should use 3 cables if you have them and not daisy chain. If not there, check which psu you got and check its specs to find out how many pcie outputs the unit has. DS installs different brand power units as available.
