Need 12V 8A

[TubsAlwaysWins]

Are there any pins on a PSU that I can use to steal 12V 8A? (Or more)

 

Need it to run a couple of water pumps. Im thinking Molex but I dont think that has enough amps

Do a reverse Molex splitter

Not sure if it would work but use both molex rails and pair them so you can get double amp.

I think 1 molex connector can already handle 8A. What PSU do you have?

Thermaltake Purepower 500

Most 500 watt power supplies these days are single 12v rail with 35ish amps available.  Depends on the power draw of everything else in your system if you can support the entire load.

4-pin molex connectors are rated up to 11A. Assuming they were built to spec.

+12V1@14A, +12V2@15A

Looks like it has enough power on 12V.
