Welcome to the forums.
 
You can about getting the individual cables you need.
 
You can also go to (use the CableMod Configurator) and get individual cables (and cable sets) in various colors and sleeving for your 1200W P2 unit..At CableMod you can get Dual 6+2 pin, Dual 8 pin, Dual 6 pin, 8+6 pin, and other PCIe cable arrangements which could allow you to connect up to six graphics cards using the VGA1 - VGA6 outputs of your PSU, i.e one graphics card per each VGA output.
 
I would definitely get the proper individual cables rather than monkeying around with adapters.
 
Make sure that a 1200W unit is enough to power all what you want..You can use the to estimate your system wattage requirement..You can also use the where you will recieve a 10% discount code in your email that's good for 30 days toward the purchase of any EVGA PSU from the EVGA Store in the US.

Thank you so much! I did not know about this CableMod website, I already used it to create a custom cable that will suit my needs!!!
 
I am also ordering a molex to molex cable extension (didn't even know they existed), because with the EVGA cable I have, the GPU's get really close to each other, thus overheating.
 
I used the EVGA Power Meter and it suggested me 850W PSU's so I am probably consuming somewhere around 750-800W atm. I increased the amount of GPUs to 6 on the calculator and I was suggested the 1200P2 PSU(which is the one that I have), so I should be good to go :)
 
 

Goobers

MatorzinhoI use the molex connections to power PCI Risers

 
Ah... I thought the molex was direct to GPUs... I was like... there's a GPU that still uses molex?!?
 
I'm fairly certain using SATA to molex is less fire hazard than the rest of your PC at that point. Same with 3 or 2 per perif cable. I don't expect riser cables to actually need too much power, so using 3 on a single perif cable should be fine.

 
Yea, I realised I forgot to mention I was using risers and then edited the post haha.
 
I don't know... Those adapters are frowned upon in the mining community... I have seen pictures and this fire hazard talk freaks me out haha.
 
I agree with you, using 3 on a single perif cable should be fine. Its a shame the GPUs would be really close together though. I will just buy a new 2 Molex cable to separate them out a bit :)
