4 Pin Molex to 8 Pin (6+2Pin) Video Card GPU Power Supply Cable 8.6inch 22cm

Bottom line: The 4 Pin Molex to 8 Pin Video Card GPU Power Supply Cable 8.6inch 22cm ($4.79 on Amazon as of 2026-10-06): Powers 6+2-pin GPUs from a spare 4-pin Molex on older PSUs; main trade-off: single Molex feed limits safe draw on higher-wattage GPUs.
