Turns out you're not supposed to connect anything else to the molex cable that's going into the add2psu, also you're supposed to power all risers with the primary PSU, any other tips/tricks y'all know of?

My understanding is that you should power a riser with the same psu that powers the card via vga/pcie connector.

This is correct, I am 100% sure that you should isolate the power supplies from each other and not mix the riser power from one supply and the 8pin from another.
