Greetings

I want to add a second Video Card to my Motherboard in SLI, but the second PCI-Express power cable comes up inches short. Do they make some sort of extension or is there a way to convert to something, then convert back?

This should do the trick BFG PCI-e extender $5

 

But you may already have an option if your video card came with the molex (4-pin)-to-PCI-e (6-pin) adapter.
Many video cards have them in the accessory pack.
