Could someone please advise, i use a corsair cx500 on current s1 and never a glitch, i notice that there are 2 spare molex 4 pin connectors on psu,  i can buy adapter for these on ebay to convert molex to pci-e , so my question is would this work with the the s3 (total 12v output from psu is max 456w) for the two othe pci-e on the boards.  Afterall its only another 30 watts more?

One S3 at clock speed can be safely run on your PSU.  Molex to pci-e will do the job.

re the same: can one 4-pin molex power 6pin PCIe or you have to have two dual male 4-pin connectors converging on a single 6-pin PCIe?
I see that there are both types for sale on ebay.
