I would stay away from these CPU power adapter splitter things. I had a molex to 4-pin CPU adapter before and it literally caught fire at some point when the system was off. Thank god I already took that system out of service and was parting it out when I discovered the damage. Would've had a major fire if I powered that thing on again.
