Vszerda

Vszerda IDE to 6-pin PCIe power cable 18cm

SKU CH-GF1W-YHTBC

Converts a 4-pin IDE power connector into a 6-pin PCIe plug for graphics cards, 18 cm long

  • Converts IDE power to 6-pin PCIe for graphics cards
  • 18 cm cable length fits compact builds cleanly
  • 100 % tested before shipment for reliable operation
  • Weighs only 20 g adding minimal mass inside the case
  • Single adapter cable simplifies power connections without extra parts

Purpose and audience

This 18 cm adapter converts a standard 4-pin IDE power connector into a 6-pin PCIe plug for a graphics card. It is intended for builders or upgraders working with older power supplies that lack native PCIe power leads. The short length keeps cable routing tidy inside compact cases. The cable weighs 20 g and ships as a single unit.

Fit and limits

The adapter suits systems where the only available auxiliary power comes from Molex-style IDE headers and the graphics card requires a single 6-pin input. It will not help builders who need more than one 6-pin connector or whose card demands an 8-pin PEG socket. Users without any free IDE headers should look at a different solution.

Deciding spec

The cable length is fixed at 18 cm, which determines whether the adapter can span the distance between the power supply’s IDE plug and the graphics card’s 6-pin socket. Measure that gap in your build before ordering; if the run is longer the cable will not reach.

Questions about this item

Will the 18 cm IDE-to-6-pin cable reach a graphics card when my power supply only has Molex connectors left?

The adapter converts a single 4-pin IDE power plug into a 6-pin PCIe connector, so you can power a compatible video card from an existing Molex lead.

How can I confirm the 6-pin end is delivering power to the GPU after I plug it in?

The graphics card should initialise normally and appear in the system BIOS or device manager without external-power warnings.

Does the package include anything besides the 18 cm IDE-to-6-pin adapter itself?

Only the single 20 g adapter cable is supplied; no extra mounting hardware or additional cables are included.
