I am wanting to get some LED strips for my case. And I'm stretched for power opportunities, as I have all my SATA ports used and the peripheral one used. (To clarify I am using a EVGA Supernove 750 G2). Most of these strips use a molex connector, and I have none left. So I would like to know if I can buy another molex peripheral cable (6-pin) and plug it into one of the 2 vacant 8-pin ports on my PSU.
Thanks for any help.
