I need help guys, after hashinh for several days my cables at the molex splitters started melting.  Huh
See the OP again, the recommendations is NOT to use a molex connector. Plenty of links and information there.

It would power ONE. Remember you can use the 4 pin ATX mobo cable for one, and if you have am 8 pin you can power two with 2x4 pin.
Thank you for all the hard work and effort you have put in the OP. Do you think that, cutting a 6pin connector would be sufficient to power 3 blades, as a replacement for the molex?

Thank you for the reply. The quote got messed up for some reason. The 6pin connect has 3 blacks 3 yellow wires, they wont be able to handle intensity of 3 blades?
No. Each pair of yellow wires is only able to provide about 75W before it becomes dodgy. You're asking 360W from ~110W of cables.

Once again thank you for the clarification. I will buy you a beer if i manage to get something out of my horrible investment.
