[SOLVED] Molex powering PCI-E Riser

[Yuliansky11]

Hi guys,

I have a 3600W power supply that I am willing to use since I am my expanding my crypto farm beginning of next week.
Unfortunately, this new PSU that I have on hand is with a limited amount of Molex cables - it looks like they put more SATA cables than Molex /I will not use SATA ofc./

My question is: Can I use two Molex cables to power two PCI-E Risers while the Molex are coming from one cable ? /Please find the attached photo/
The GPU's that will be on the Risers are all RTX 3080 Ti Founders Edition 12GB - I plan for this PSU to power six GPU all one and the same.

This PSU has a total of four cables each one splitting into 3 SATA's + 2 Molex and the fifth cable is only with 5 SATA's. The exact model is below. /The funniest part is that they put 24 GPU cables /

I would really love if someone could help me with that before my GPU's arrive next week.

Thank you so much in advance!

Do the risers meet atx specifications?

The best fix would be to use riser adapters that have 6/8-pins for power instead of Molex/SATA.

Thank you, this is exactly what I am going to do!
