How Do People Individually Sleeve 6+2?!

[CaffienatedBovine]

When I ask that I mean the kind that has the little dangly bit coming out of the 6 pin.

Anybody who knows please do tell.

They sleeve all the way to the 6 pin, then for the +2 they sleeve its wires?

They do a spice the second wire into the main wire and hide the splice behind the motherboard tray:

From my knowledge the extra 2 pins are just extra grounds to handle the extra power draw of something that uses an 8 pin. So instead of splitting off 2 extra grounds right at the pcie connector split them off at the power supply pcie connector and run the extra grounds up as normal wires.

I don't think those wires would be anywhere near long enough, are you suggesting getting new wires for the extra 2 pins?

They are sleeved intothe cable further  back. Generally though they make you chose between either a 6 pin or 8 pin

Like what @ said it should look like this here:

Yea sorry I thought that was obvious So yes just use new wires and splice the extra 2 into the 2 grounds on the 6 pin. I guess I should mention you can do the splicing anywhere along the 2 main grounds for the 6 pin, so like in that video linked above he does it so the spliced part is behind the motherboard tray so you can't see them.

Seems like you'd be better off just doing extensions.
