Hello everyone,

My rig is as follows:
i7 3770k stock
Z77A - G45 MSI mother board
MSI GTX 670
650W Cooler Master GX650W PSU

I'm getting another GTX 670 and I only have 2 6-pin power connectors coming from my PSU. So I somehow need to find a way to power it. Which one do you think would be the better option:

A: Use Y splitters on the 6-pin connectors I have and have 4 6-pin connectors in total to power my additional gtx 670.

B: Use 2 molex to 6-pin adapters to power the new gtx 670. The problem with this option is that I only have 3 molex connectors in total coming from my PSU, but I need 4 molex connectors to plug in the adapter and get 2 6-pin's. I could use a molex splitter to get one extra molex connector but I'm not too sure if it would work.

I can't get another PSU since I'm all out of money right now. My current PSU's specs are here.

So what do you suggest I do?

I am not interested in knowing whether my PSU can handle it or not or being told that I should get a new PSU. My question is which option I stated above would be the better way to go.
