hello i need help finding an adapter

 

so Im building a server and the power supply I got has a pci power connector for a graphics card but not enough molex for fans and hard drives

 

I noticed that the fans only use the yellow lines on their molex connectors and the pci power is only yellow lines.

 

so I am trying to find an adapter to go from PCIe power to molex but whenever I try to search that I can only find adapters for powering gpus off of power supplies that dont have pci power but I need the other way around.

 

(i know that pcie power is only 12v and molex is 12+5 but I only need the 12v lines because I want to power my fans off it so I can use all my molex with adapters for sata power)

The fans only have molex because it's a server case and they are made to be 24/7 full speed (they are actually pretty quiet) so that won't work
