Should I power MB/CPU with basic PSU to take load off GPU PSU?

I have a rig of 4 RX 580s on a 850w Corsair RMx.  They pull just under 700w from the wall.

Considering I have a spare 450w PSU from an older Dell PC sitting around, would it help my 850w PSU at all if I split off the MB and CPU to the spare PSU? A splitter is under $10.
