I have a msi gtx560 gpu. I want to use two non brand psu (both 500w), one for the entire pc and the other dedicated for the gpu. Problem is both psu has only 2 molex connector. I don’t want to use the other psu’s (for the pc) molex connector. This GPU has two 6 pin PCI-e power connectors. I have two converter like this (came with gpu package)-

Not sure what your spending limit is. But you are still borderline with required power. If you are on a budget, the Corsair CX series are pretty nice. You can get the CX650-M for 69.99$ (US)
