I have an old Antec NEO480 [semi modular] and the 2 rails say +12V@18A, +12V@18A (though the manual says +12V@18A, +12V@15A).
my question is can i use 2 molex's from 2 different modular outputs (I have 4 total modular outputs) to get a combined amperage of 38A in this case?
I am looking to bolt it to a GF GTS250 1GB which comes with a double molex to 6pin cable and says, "Minimum 450W or greater system power supply (with a minimum 12V current rating of 24A)"
it is this card:

but at the same time this card here has no mention of minimum PSU ratings, and also has a 6pin (clocks are a tad slower is all I see):

Also is there any way to tell which of the modular outputs are the +12V one's or are the 2 rails divided between 4 modular outputs? There is nothing in the manual about this.
I am completely ignorant of how rails operate in relation to the modular outputs.
