hey guys i want to know if this is possible

i have 2 computers, computer A: has a 8800gts g92 and a psu of 550w with two 6 pin connectors (SLI RDY).
computer B: has a psu of 300w....i have a 7950gt...but i know that 300w are not enough to power up that gfx card

\so my question is.....can i connect the 7950 gt to computer "B" using the extra 6 pin connector of computer "A"

Pls tell me.....i dont want to buy another psu

umm.... I'm not sure your 550w PSU will survive the experience of two graphics cards (some brands probably could some couldn't, u haven't been specific)... and the computer towers would have to be right next to each other for the cables to reach, but I suppose in theory.....
oh and you'd have to have both running simultaeneously

What make & model is the 300w PSU? If it's a decent enough one you don't have a problem as 7950gt's only use about 40watts at full load ... I used to have one in my shuttle alongside a E6600 and the 250w shuttle power supply, and it was perfect.
