Adapter- 4-pin molex to 6-pin pci-e connector

[sahil619]

I had to buy 4-pin molex to 6-pin pci-e connector, as I had one less pci-e connector for GTX 560 ti
4-pin molex to 6-pin pci-e connector normally they look like this :

(2x molex to 1x 6-pin pcie adapter)



But I got the different one and I want to know would it help my GTX 560 ti to run properly?
Its some what like this:

It has only one molex of 3 pins. 2 pins have 2 wires each coming out and 1 middle pin have 1 wire coming out. (5 wires total)

Now as you see the picture : http://www.avadirect.com/images/items/MSC-ADR-MLXM26PPCIE.jpg



according to the photo my pci-e side has 3 wires connecting 3 points near the clip....
The above side; in the top- middle and on the top-right 2 other wires connect. (5 wires total)
But for top -left corner a wire from middle comes out and connect to the top-left....

now is this thing wired correctly? Have i brought the correct adapter or is it not going to work.

It will work, the yellow wires are +12 Volt and the black ground and is all the cards need. A 4 pin molex carries 5 volt as well in a red wire and it is not needed for the card hence only the 3 pins in the adapter.

A good question is if your PSU that only has a single 6pin plug on it can handle the load.

As I have 2 yellow wire and 3 black wire (total 5 wire). I forgot to tell...
So according to you is it ok rolly59 .....2 yellow and 3 black wire?

Yes it should work if the PSU can handle the card.
