Please let me know if it makes sense?
This is the plan

PSU1 & PSU2 are connected to the wall plug (2 separate wall plugs)
PSU1 & PSU2 are connected to each other via ADD2PSU or similar (24 pin split)


PSU1 connects to MOBO/CPU and HDD for power

PSU1 connects to 3x cards and 3x risers using 2 MOLEX (can I use 2 separate MOLEX cables?) and 3x 6 PIN total — or I can use 6 x 6 pin instead?

PSU2 connects 3x cards and 3x risers using the same (or all 6 PIN?)



I have a 1600W EVGA Platinum as main and a 1200W CM Vanguard as slave. They both have 6x 6 PIN

Can I use these cables for 6 pin to 6 pin?

These are my risers

So you have a nice 1600 watt evga supernova  with 5x 6 pin pcie + 9x 8pin pcie cables  
According to specs u have Pcie:  5x 750mm, 900mm (m) 4x 750mm (m) just like i wrote.

6 card gpu rig, what graphics cards are u gonna get? are they single  8 pin pcie or 2 8pin pcie per card?
Personally i wouldnt power the risers with molex/sata cables , atleast not if you got a choice , so hers my way how i would setup your system.
