Yes you need to connect another power cable to the card. You didn't give the manufacturer name so I am just guessing on the exact power cable needed. I checked 3 different brands and they all say they need a 6-pin cable for extra power and anywhere from a 350W to 450W power supply. Some brands come with a 6-pin to Molex cable adapter (if you have a older power supply).
If you have a relatively new power supply it should come with one or two 6-pin cables. There should be a socket on the back edge for the 6-pin cable. It can only plug-in one way - so DON'T try to force it.
Good Luck
