I recently rewired my psu to adapt to my 14 pin mobo connector for my Lenovo mobo. I'm super tight on money and I am looking at a nice graphics card, but it requires a 6 pin power connector. I have the adapter, but I had to use the 12v wires from the molex connectors to power the mobo. I was wondering if I could connect other wires to make near 12v and connect those in place of the 12v wires on the molex connector so I can use the Graphics card I am getting.
My other question would be if I could take one of the 12v wires from my mobo and use it to power my Molex connector or if I could split one of the 12v wires to do that? Like splitting one 12v wire and sending one part into mobo and other into molex to power my GPU?
I don't have another PSU and I need to find a fix to use my GPU that I am getting, is there anything I can do to fix this?
BTW I am a decent pc tech and will understand most things, but I wanted to know if this could be done safely or provide a stable connection to my GPU
