The graphics cards won't be drawing from the PCIe Riser as long as you have the PCI-E connected directly to the video card.  My rigs run just fine on SATA power connectors directly to the Riser.
6 GTX 1070 + MB + CPU + RAM + SSD = 75 watts idle and 860 watts at full hashing load (cards set to 90% power).  I run that 860 load on a single 1000 watt PS
OK ill order these cables that Vann has already suggested https://www.aliexpress.com/item/10Pcs-Set-Dual-Molex-4-Pin-To-One-PCI-E-6-Pin-Power-Connector-Y-Adapter/32820421116.html
