So I'm wondering how to actually power this sucker... It has a DC connector that I've seen people go from a PCIe 6pin.

Does anyone have an idea?

A laptop-like 12V power supply.

EDIT: Power brick.

Right, but I'm wanting to power this with a 1200W server PSU... I guess splicing the power is the only way.

Would that work?

That one has the proper 2.5mm plug, but it uses molex instead of PCI-E.

https://www.amazon.com/PCI-Express-5-5X2-1mm-Plugs-Gridseed/dp/B00MTI68IE Chinese seller though.

Can't be difficult to build your own connectors though.

Hmm, I guess the question would be where do I find the dc connectors so I can attach them properly. Thanks for the leg work!

The search term you should be using is 2.5 mm barrel connector.

I'm looking specifically for this piece here. Any thoughts?
